A Family Christmas......Between 2 Hunts.........

[Chizzy]

Yep.......I sneaked out for an hour and a half before the family gathering today in hopes of finding one more silver ring to meet my goal of 15. The plan was to hunt a school (my old jr. high school) along the walkways. 5 minutes into the hunt, I began seeing the surface dirt remains of another detector's plugs.......I was a day too late. Changing gears, I decided to hunt an area adjacent to the school ball field.........



The only ring was a cheap nose ring.......silver plated. I did find a French 1992 5 centimes.

After the Christmas family gathering, highlighted by another great meal prepared by my son (a chef) and the joy of sharing in the wonderment of the kids, I managed another hour before the sun went down at a small sports complex across the river........



This area is rich with good signals and I only managed a very small portion........it gets another look tomorrow and every day possible before the weather changes for the worse...........the last target of the day was a ring, but appears to be aluminum..........not pictured individually is a 2008 s nickel.

Thanks for lookin' in and good luck on all your hunts...............

LOL.....yeah, I was being patient awaiting the thaw......and fulfilling my spousal/fatherly/grandfatherly/great grandfatherly responsibilities for a few days. When I got up early this morning, my wife looked at me and said, "You're going out dirt fishin', aren't you?" "Yup" sez, I......and out the door wuz me...............
No soccer field at the site from today, but there are a couple I could check out that aren't hunted...............didn't have any luck at 2 others that I hunted earlier this year.
