    Short Hunt at the Picnic Grove

    Got out for a quick short hunt at the picnic grove.
    I was there 5 minutes when I got a decent signal.
    Down 6 inches was a IH.
    Rechecked the spot and about 3 inches over another signal.
    Out popped another IH.
    Spent a total of an hour there and managed 2 IH's ( 1893 and 1895 )
    These are my 8th and 9th IH's for the year.
    3 Wheats ( 1912 1953 and ? ) and 1 Memorial

    Funny thing is that the last time I was there I was with Kimsdad and I pulled an 1893 and 1895 IH's from the same hole too.
    Here's the links for that hunt.
