Friday's honey do's lead into Saturday's honey do's :censored: but I did get out dirt fishing all day today. :metaldetector: 9 days of stay-cation and I hunted 7 of them. :hello2: Today started out driving by two properties, no cars in the driveways so I headed on out to hit an old demolished school's grounds. First 2 targets in the first 10 minutes of the hunt were wheats so I was hoping for some silver. Not to be had though, I only dug 2 more coins. The 1st hunted lasted about 2 hours and off I wen't to get another permission in the neighborhood I have been concentrating on. This makes the 4th house (they are all next to each other) that I was granted permission. It took me 2 hours of gridding to find my 1st keeper, the 1945-S Walker. :headbang: 10 feet ahead of the clad Kennedy half. :icon_thumright: 30 minutes later I dug the 1943 Washington. :thumbsup: A couple of the othe rnice finds were the pocket watch, 8-) the thimble, :icon_thumleft: and a an odd lead weight. ???

I gridded about 80% of the property. the owner (a younger fellow) said I can come back anytime to finish, whether anyone is at home or not. :headbang:

What a way to cap off a week's hunt Loco! I bet that Walker lit your ears up...those big silvers make such a sweet sound. Loco I was home 36 hours this weekend and I did get out a few hours and scored my first gold ring, so that made being out of town this week a little better..just dug n dug n dug trash signals, and finally a solid 46 rewarded me with the cutest little 18k gold shiny. Didn't even have time to post, maybe later this week. Thx Loco for a great week...ddf
