Woke up early this morning and headed to the sports swamp to see if it had dried up anymore. Well it hadn't! In fact, there is still an inch of water covering the whole field, and that's not exaggerating any. Everywhere is like that, so I headed out looking for higher ground. Finally I decided to just hit the islands in shopping centers. I turned my discrimination way up to accept only in the copper and silver range so that I wouldn't have to dig any trash in this mush, and mush is putting it lightly. Didn't do too bad, I managed quite a bit of clad, a 1990 Chucky Cheese token, a class of 1991 high school pendent, and a "love,faith,hope" tag. The truth is, I went to me and Blues field and went over HIS side to see what he missed. Man Blue, you need to get your detector tuned up, This all came off of your side. :D :D :D :D

I wonder how many chucky cheese tokens you can find checking around the bushes outside of chucky cheese??? That would be interesting to try. Congrats.

Yea, it rained hard again this evening, and I just thought it was over.
I wonder where Blue is tonight, I expected him to chime in along time ago.

That is a preety good haul of clad coins. If I could do that well hitting those types of spots (shopping center islands) I would not even worry about the sports swamp (field).

:o ::) :D ;D ;)

That was my oldest Chuck E Cheese token so far, and the design is a little different I noticed after cleaning it up. I wonder how many different ones there are.

Blue, when you find that other leg I'll send you the finds from your side. I'm not about to let loose of them for some defective Buffalo that has to hobble around all day. It's about time you showed up again. I was begining to think you might have got lost going to the store or something. Nice coins, but lousy pics, but then again, that's what you get for trespassing on my side of the field. Way to go bud, glad to see you're back.
