Hello everyone! I had a 1960's teardown house to hit this morning with DP Bob and Watercolor. There was lots of interference in the back yard and pieces of tubing buried in different spots. Not even one wheat could be found. :icon_scratch: We moved to the front yard and the interference reduced a bit. After a while, I got a quarter signal 3" down. Since it was a boring site, I decided to dig it - 25 cents in clad added to the kitty. Much to my surprise, it was a '35 George! :o

Nothing else was happening around there, so we went to a small family grove. No great shakes there, but we got a nice surprise with a call from Bucnrut (Guy) and Gibbsium (Patrick). They were out hunting and were headed our way, so we met up. Guy & Mark wanted to woods hunt, so they went one direction, and Pat & I went another because we felt like turfing it.

About 30 minutes later, I got a nice deep dime signal, and found a '17 Merc. No dirt pic of her because she jumped out of the hole & was hiding in the grass nearby. I had to scan the grass to find her. I also got a buff in the same area, but I'm too lazy to clean it now, so I'm not posting a pic. ;D

Here's the good goods!
