God please make the mud dry up soon...

[Newbie1967]

Went to a local small playground with my son and found a few pennies, and decided to hit the local high school. Did a little MD'ing and got so sick of all the mud

We walked the parking lot near the snowbanks and edges and managed to scare up a few more coins - 17 in all... First quarter, anyway...

I can NOT wait for the ground to dry out!

Question for anyone reading this - do you ever bother with nature trails? There is one not far from my home but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble...

Look for the seating areas along nature trails.

I like the nice greenish patina on that quarter. Some people overlook the beauty of a coin like that and some even clean them

I like to set these aside and keep them protected.

The first day I went MDing, I went along a trail and found a cache in a tree! I found over a quart jar of coins all modern clad that totaled over $70.00. I thought to myself that this MDing thing was pretty cool and I'd have my detector paid for in a few days.... But instead, I have been digging up one coin at a time ever since! I have no ideal why someone would hide that many coins in a tree!

 

[ghost surf]

Was that any where around Mid Wisconsin? I Know of a story about money hid in a tree that never was discovered..And I also know of a older man who told me stories about how he hid money in trees, so his grand children could find it and they where told it was a money tree.He say's there was alot on the ground too! Walking liberties was his favorite to put in there for them to find.
I have alot of stories, I know of in Wisconsin.If any body has anymore interesting stories...Please Email me because I might try my hand at a small venture with these stories.Nothing big though lost and found stories and maybe hidden stuff never found,Or the ring that was found by a freind or in the attick after years of being there noit known...Ect..just small stuff like that...here is an email you can send to: [email protected]... I do not except bad language or anything that would be insulting... This will be delt with..It must be true and let me know who to contact if you have a name for other information if needed.Wisconsin is my most wanted articles I will however execpt other states for cross reference.Thankyou very much! Remember short and to the point!

Despite the ice i am going to make an attempt at a fresh water frozen beach. My choice of ice busting weaponary include a pyramid shaped splitting wedge called a wood gernade and a 2 and a half pound sledge hammer. Mother nature wants a war she's got it. I will recover and post something by thursday. I don't care if it a beer can 2 feet down I'm bringing home something. If it works out ok then I'll do it more often. Wish me luck because it's gonna be a long day with lots of coffee. Jason

Knorrski....My brother live in Bloomfield. Are you near there?

 

[distelrath]

Just wear some galoshes and gloves... you'll be allright!

 

[Lowbatts]

God gave you the mud so you could make mud pies in your down time. Remember to fill them with coins and place them with care!

 

[distelrath]

No kidding I do that sometimes. Whenever I see a place that I would like to metal detect possibly 100 years in the future I always drop a few coins for those who will be thrilled to find them. ...as if any of our clad is going to be worth a fart, but still I entertain the thought.
