I got a chance to hunt this weekend - only a couple hours on Sat. because of rain and almost all day Sun. I picked up gogogopher and we went West to some different schools. The first school had a sign - no metal detectors on school property - a (first) for us so we had to try a park which was picked pretty clean. I did manage to find a broken watch and very little clad. So we rode around and tried a different school and ran into another TH. He is "whammy" on the White's forum so we chatted with him awhile. He gave us a tip about a school where he had found over 50 silver coins. Well he must have found all of them because we couldn't find any. I did manage to find 7 wheat pennies - a new one day record for me and my (first) IKE silver dollar. So after a slow start it ended well finding close to 5 bucks in clad. It was also my best coin total so far this year and I just went over a 100 bucks.
