Yesterday,the family and I drove from New Hampshire to Rhode Island to visit relatives.I brought along the Fisher f-70.Once we arrived in Westerly,R.I. we stopped at a park with a playground for the kids.There was a large field they had to cross to get to the playground.I didnt work any kind of pattern,just in the direction of the playground.It ended up like this:penny(memorial)x3,clad dime,a wheatie(oh wait a minite thats not linclon,I flipped it over and saw one dime inside a wreath,OMG a Barber,i carefully blew off the front 1900 ;D,that was a half hour into the huntThe wife and kids came over and were ready to head back to the truck.I did a wide loop and headed back,I was about 20 yards from the truck and pulled a heavy .925 ring(bent though).I am estatic now,reason for this is there is still 12-18 inches of snow ground at home in N.H.This is a great way to end cabin fever with my first hunt of the year.

Im back in NH now,but I did go back to the site where I found the Barber,spent about 2 hours there before heading back north to NH.I managed a 1934D wheatie and a little over $4.00 in clad.This field is huge.I plan to hit it every time i go back to Rhode Island at least for an hour or two.There has got to be more out there.
