I started the day by knocking on a few doors. The first two, nobody was home. The last door I knocked on I asked permission to metal detect the property. The home owner was a little odd and wasn't sold on me detecting there. So, I asked about the curb strip in front of his house. He told me that it's city property and have at it. So I did. I found a couple wheats and a silver Washington out in front of his house. The strip ran out in front of another house so I continued on. Not to long after, a man approached me. I took my head phones off. He said " what are you doing on my property"? I replied" as far as I know this is city property". He said " Uhh It is but I have to maintain it and I don't want you here digging holes
and doing damage". He said all of that without even to bother to look and see for him self that I know what I'm doing and had done no damage. So I replied " Yah, but It's still city property, right?" He went on to say " Yah but I don't want you here and I'll take it up with the city if I have to." I told him I wanted no trouble even though I wanted to say go right ahead, I know my rights. No need to draw attention to myself especially bad attention. So he told me to get moving and I did. This guy was a real piece of work! Let me know what you think
