Does anybody else have the frozen ground blues??

[Vonclemen29]

Well, about over this cold weather. I've been stuck in my house for a straight week now, and I'm ready for some good weather. It's been raining, sleeting, freezing rain, snowing, and just plain cold for seven days. The ground and trees are frozen, and now I'm just waiting to lose power.
Mississippi has the most bipolar weather. It's supposed to be seventy Monday, it's 28 and raining now. Well I found a spot about two days before all this started and I'm aching to get back in it. Found all kinds of stuff. I farm so this is my off season, so metal detecting is about all I do during the winter. Ready for some good weather!!
Well anyway, rant over here's my two day hunt. I think the bullet I found is a spencer, not real sure.

28 degrees and rain? I would be jumping for joy lol! Haven't been able to dig since early November. Nice finds, what's the little oval thing in the bottom left of the pic?

 

[Vonclemen29]

Lol, that sux. It's some kind of button, nothing on the front and the back stud is broke off. Yea this rain is freezing as soon as it lands, had to pour water on the car to open the doors this morning to take my daughter to school, was frozen shut. Rare this time of the year in mississippi

frozen ground blues?... not me.

Must be a heck of a site , some nice finds you got there. vazutphen

 

[Professor of Engineering]

A very interesting collections of finds! Thank you for sharing.

 

[Vonclemen29]

Thanks y'all, it is a heck of a site. I just know it'll pay off eventually. It's literally around ten acres of stuff spread all over in some woods. I haven't found anything to tell me it's not old. No tin, no tops, just iron and brass. So, after this junky weather is over I'm headed that way

 

[The Patriot]

going nuts there...by the looks outside with the current storm coming...I'll be detecting in July

 

[Scrappy]

I feel your pain. 28 feels balmy to me when compared to the last month. Today a heat wave at 36 forecasted. Warm weather is coming north next week, and by warm I mean an entire week with highs between 35-45!!!!! I figure the snow/ice should be melted by next Wednesday and grass should be exposed. After that it's just a matter of thawing 6-8" of ground.

Small steps

Lol.

"Frozen ground blues".....? Hmmmmm.... yep, little bit......



... from my office chair looking outside. And that was two storms ago. Can only see the tops of the streetlights now.

I hate winter.

Frozen ground blues ..... yup I would say so its been below zero here at sunrise 18 of the last 25 days . I couldn't dig in the ground right now without a excavator and some C4 . I expect to be Mding again when the snow melts and ground thaws somewhere around the 17th of july . That is if we get lucky ,if not I might not be able until the 7th of august and it will start snowing again by sept 21 so I get like 6 weeks this year.... I better dig fast .

 

[Vonclemen29]

Well.... Y'all make me feel lucky. I couldn't handle all that. It'll be thawed here next week probably, it's been rough here this year but when we have it rough, y'all got it worse. Wish y'all well, and stay warm

 

[Vonclemen29]

Yea it was supposed to be snowing today, this is what we're gettin here

 

[IAsoldier]

Thawed out in some spots and frozen in others. Now snow is coming in to ruin my day auuuh

 

[Vonclemen29]

Yea that's how it is here. Just two miles from here it's winter wonderland. Here jus wet an nasty

 

[WHADIFIND]

Yeah, I've been a bit chomping at the bit. Although I have a tough winter here, I know it's not as bad as some others. Still, it's not a contest.

Anyway, I've put the time to good use. I've come up with a few mods on my ATP. Can't wait to see if they work.

Funny thing though, the batteries only last about 10 minutes now.

You have a fine display there! Some nice saves! Thanks for sharing.

 

[Sluice Box]

Still to much damn snow on the ground here in MI to do anything. Patiently, and still waiting since November.... All this time being inside this winter has done nothing but pour fuel on my fire for this year! Come on Spring!!!!

Single digits a lot here in my part of PA. Today was the first day in awhile that some of the old snow started melting. I started running this winter to get in shape. I've since had to give that a break because of this harsh weather. Man I can't wait until I can go dig some nice warm dirt. Soon... But on a good note, I've lost 31 lbs already!

 

[Msbeepbeep]

From all the mountainous piles of snow here I figure I'll still be able to make a snowball in August...I just hope the ground THAWS BEFORE THEN!!!!! AUUUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!! ........sorry lost it there for a minute.
