It was hot this week Vermont so decided to go to the river to cool off and pan after work for two nights. Found a good spot lots of small gold and no pickers, but small gold adds up. I did hit one spot real quick with the detector and found one toasted Indian and a copper the only thing I can make out on it is 1812. IMG_0243.JPG IMG_0244.JPG

Jim it got me excited to do some more panning there. Most of my old spots are played out nice to get some new color, in a different stream. I had one pan that I should've got a pic of ( it was the best pan I have had in two years), after that pan I was getting every possible speck of dirt I could out of the bedrock. I probably looked like I was possessed. The only downside or upside to this is that this summer I was bite by the metal detecting bug. Although I really have to get back to that stream and detect the bottom for a possible nugget.
