Conference +Roadtrip make for gold and silver finds

Started this post last night but couldnt stay awake long enough to finish it. We were out of town last week for my annual cme conference. The conference was fine but the detecting was better.
We hit 3 places along the way last Saturday. The first one produced 14k ball earring for me, Bobbie found the 10k gold heart pendant with stones. The second produced the silver and cz eternity slide pendant. The last stop we made on our way to the conference produced only 7 cents for me but Bobbie found the 14k/citrine ring there.
The conference wrapped up friday morning and we had already decided to make this our weekend for the monthly road trip since we were already away from the area. We got to detect couple of hours friday evening, all day Saturday and until noon yesterday before starting the ride home. At our first school yard friday evening I found 2 halves of a gold bracelet, only thing is they arent the same one half 10k yellow bangle bracelet, and 1 half 14 white gold bracelet. I tried to find the other parts but it was not to be. Bobbie found a 14k earring here also. She also found bout 11.00 in clad there , and I added another $6.00 to my pile for the weekend. Saturdays produced an ample amount of coins for both of us and a surprise that I didnt realize until we were at the hotel Saturday evening counting out our finds, at one of the spots I had found a 1910 V nickle. Now i am the first person to tell you that I really dont pay close attention to coins I find while I am out detecting they just go into the pouch.This has happened twice in the last few monthes. Saturdays finds also produced the 10k clasp, and the large silver earring. We detected 3 places yesterday morning and the first one produced the small 10k nuggett, and cz/silver stud, Bobbie found the wheat there also. At the last spot even with foot prints all over the sand Bobbie pulled out the pretty silver/pink ice ring.
Bobbies totals for last Saturday and then this weekend was $41.03 in clad, 3 gold 2 silver and a wheat. I finished up with $30.60 in clad 5 gold, 4 silver, and the V nickle.
Its nice to be back home again

Thanks all we had a great time. this makes 3 broken gold bracelets this year for me, I figure one of these days I will find both pieces. This trip was with my back up shadow as my regular shadow developed a case of the breakdowns couple of weeks ago and it is on its way to tesoro to be repaired

D+B,
Good job, congrats on all those finds!
That 14k citrine is my favorite. The stone color looks awesome, sure it's not prescious topaz?
