Its been a while since I did a post.

Met up with WaterColor and Mike this morning at Deer Grove.
Found the old baby stroller spoke wheel out in the middle of the field.
After that Mark and I went to his house to see his " BANNER " Find
Let me tell you that copper artifact is one COOL find..............

Headed home and on the way home I spotted an old home for sale.
Drove up to it and spoke to the owner about allowing me to detect.
She said. No Problem. I asked about have a friend come over too.
She said . Sure go a head.
Called  WaterColor up and told him to get his butt over here.
( It was a couple blocks from his house. )
Found the 1887 IH after a few minutes.
This was looking good  ohhhhh yaaaaaa.
Turned out that the house only held a few keepers.
Kind of disappointing.
I did dig up what is now my second ugliest ring. ( the ring on the left)
Got the 45 Quarter  ( 47th silver coin this year )and a couple wheats
along with other stuff

Here's the house and WaterColor

Thanks for looking

Bob, I am SOOOO glad you stoped by that house on your way home
today. . . so you could pull out that sweet Indian! When you showed it to me,
I wasn't going to tell you the date :-X. . . you needed something to look forward
to on the way home :D

It was glad you could make it to Deer Grove this morning with me & Mike. . . even
though you ONLY found that gold ladies' watch :D :D

Take care,
Mark
