    Long day dirtfishin' - day off

    Went out knocking on several doors today, nobody home except the dogs. So i went to a house I had gained permission at a week before, 1869 farm. I wasn't too enthusiastic, the yard just looked too "puffy".
    Lots of iron and stuff, but I did get the lipstick tube and Barber there.
    I also hit my favorite ballfield that was freshly plowed a month ago, and dug six older wheaties.
    Last but not least visited another ballfield and dug a merc and 2 more rings.
    Weather was nice and once again, the lawn did not get mowed at my house.

    Wow, looks like a good day to me, D. WTG on the Barber and rings. I like the lipstick tube too. And your grass isn't really growing any more is it?

    The lawn can wait! Nice finds. What does it say in the gold ring??

    Congrats to ya Mr D. Nice nab on the Barber dime. I like finding the old lipsticks too. I like to open them up and if its red, I put it on and prance around the house.....wait I wasn't supposed to tell you that. They are kinda cool to find though. Keep hitting those old homes.
    I have to work this Saturday 8 hours. I know I said no more revisits for me but a guy up the road stopped by after reading that article Saturday and offered to let me detect his yard again. Its the home where I found the confederate button at and a lot of other goodies. I may just hit it Saturday evening or Sunday if I can. I hit it hard but ya never know.
    Ya never know until ya go.
