Well today is my 36th Birthday and I left work a little early to get some detecting time in. It was a picture perfect day here. I went door knocking, and it turned into some adventure... People are funny (too long of a story to write). Well I was on a quest to find a "First" or something old. I did manage one Merc, a few Wheats and a handfull of clad along with my typical haul of trash and whats-its. I got home to a great super, handmade cards and gifts from the kids. My Wife got me a new armcuff for my Etrac and an 1881 Morgan Dollar and a 1934 Walker Half. She said it might be a while before I find one of these in the dirt. Now I am ending my night looking on TN at all the Amazing Finds everyone has made. It was a Great Day! :icon_thumleft:
