    Got my 50th Silver for the season

    Today was my 23rd Wedding Anniversary and I got my 50th silver for the season today.

    Met up with Watercolor, Lookn4seated, Etrac007 & Twistidd.
    Hunted for maybe half hour when I got a deep repeatable signal.
    Numbers jumped a bit but I dug it anyways since it was early in the hunt..
    I think if it were later in the hunt after digging all those little tiny screw caps from all the
    alcoholics back in the 40's & 50's I would not have dug this signal...
    It was at least 8 inches deep.
    This week has been hell trying to get to 50.
    I have dug 36 wheaties , 3 tokens, clad & a lot of screw caps this week and no silver
    Finally early on I dug it...Monkey is off the back....
    I stopped to do some clad fishing too.
    In all I got $3.83 & back so far from the $4.34 I spent on the batteries
    Plus the silver dime..

    Glad to see everyone again....Had a great outing, especially seeing Twistidd get his Seated Dime....

    Next stop 75?

    Re: Got my 50th Silver for the season

    Congrats on 50 Bob! I'd say the race is on to 51! You and my Dad have definitely got the odds in your favor though. Just as soon as this month is over though, we are supposed to not have to work 60 hour work weeks. If they say we don't have to, but we need to do everything to get the projects done, I'm going to have to recommend hiring more of Me! While I go back 40 for a while and try to live a little this year.

    WTG, Bob!!!

    I know you were stuck at 49 for a while!

    Lots of 1920 Mercs have been coming up in IL lately.
    God bless our veterans! Thank you for your sacrifices!
