Hey gang :hello: Had an excellent hunt today. And boy did I need it for a change :tongue3:

Coming off my 2 year run with the MXT 300 & have been trying to learn the Safari. I think I'm coming along pretty well. Not only that, but, I think it's going to be a long-term relationship. We might even go steady :laughing7:

I dug about 90% of all signals today. Just to get a better understanding on the sounds the Safari makes. I must've dug what seems like hundreds of pulltabs, however, no gold :icon_scratch:

Did however manage to snag a couple of gems. The itemized list is as follows...

A cool pewter charm

Boy scout slide

Cheapo ring

Standing liberty quarter (my reward for the day) - Unfortunately no date. Completely worn off :(

3 wheaties - 2 1945's & a 1956

1 1965 canadian cent - looked it up in the book and says it's worth $18.00 -Small beaded edge with the rounded number 5

A broken buckle (can anyone help I.D. it)

2 bullets (methinks they are 2 ringers. A wee bit smaller than a dime. Has oxidation on them as you can see in the pics. I.D also needed)

Anyways, glad I returned to my "sure thing" park today. It never fails. I ALWAYS pull at least one keeper out of there. I also met up with another forum member today - John. Very nice guy. Looks like we'll be hunting together again soon.

BTW, I take my finds pictures in my bathroom where the lighting is good. My girlfriends hair is all over the place. Starting to drive me bonkers :tongue3: Anyone else hate this too? :laughing7:

Way to go on the SLQ.! :headbang: They are difficult to find. If you dig 6 of these it seems only one will have a date. :(

Great job nailing the SLQ...I'll bet you have a new love for your Safari!...more love than the hair! You asked, here's my answer: I hate the hair that gets caught on brushes, towels, carpets, wash cloths....gets dragged through your toes, across your face, etc....but all worth it to me ;D

Congrats again!
