75 Minute Hunt today

[jeff of pa]

frustration of not finding silver this year got me to go to
the Grounds I remember finding my Last piece of Silver last year in Hopes
I may break This Slump of only finding Wheats & clad so far.

So to beat the Heat I headed out at Dawn


a Little History of the Carnival Grounds:

The carnival grounds of approximately 14 acres was bought from William Wiest on January 8th, 1951 for $2,500.00.The second Fireman's Carnival was held on the grounds on June 26-19, 1951. The carnival has been held on these grounds every year since. Over the years, a cake stand, stage, bingo pavilion, 2 picnic pavilions, playground equipment, and a baseball diamond have been added.

in spite of it's fairly new age of the carnival.
I have pulled a 1790's Half Cent & a 1790's Large cent here
in the past.
as The Tulpehocken trail runs through this town also

And this place rarely lets me leave without a piece of silver

















My Gas Rebate today was still slim.

45 Cents



a Bit of trash.



My first 2 coins dug were Wheats
& in spite of the coincidence of them both being 1937
they were not in the same hole




and

The slump is Broken

WTG, Jeff. 😁 Always enjoy the "Surroundings" pix you add. I'd do that, too...if I ever found anything worth posting. 😔

Great job on ending your drought Jeff! Cjon and I went through your area yesterday and stopped at a beautiful old farm but no one home to give us permission, darn it! I think the 3 of us should go tackle some places soon.
