We detected in a new county today, one that we would generally consider to be on the edge of driving distance for a one day trip at a little over 2 hours in each direction. So armed with our site list of 8 sites and good directions we headed out at 7:30 this am. By the time we drug ourselfs home at 8:30 tonight we had hit 7 of the 8 on the list, had a great time and got royally lost on the way home. At least we got lost after we had finished detecting for the day, so no detecting time was lost ;D
At the first site Bobbie stepped in to the playground swung her detector and wham pulled up a 10k NC State Wolfpack pendent. She gets done in that play area, heads to the next one at the school and first signal there produces the silver ring.
We had another great day for clad again, Bobbie found $16.11 and I found $12.20, I also found thin silver ring today not in pictures. we both found quite a bit of costume jewlery.
tired and sore tonight

thanks gang for the kind words, Seeker we do detect in Raleigh and surrounding areas every few monthes, we always have a good time when we detect out that way. it is though like this weekend sites kinda on the outer limits of our one day hunt drive distance as it is just under 2 hours there. jpat we are in martin county bout 40 min east of Rocky Mount. Civilman we hunt the normal places schools, parks, beaches, etc. I present the spots to bobbie and she will pick the ones she wants to hunt. With her family living in Michigan, and my family in Florida . We find ourselves detecting through out several states.
I know that having bobbie as my detecting partner has increased my finds substanially.
