After Izzy's great success yesterday (she whooped my butt :D), she was rarin' to get out there again today! While she did not do as well as she did yesterday, she did manage to pick off $1.10 in clad. I managed to find lots of "junque" and my one coin - an 1897 Indian Head. It's definitely seen better days but I'm elated since it's my very first IH. If the weather holds out, I'll be takin' Iz out again tomorrow to see if we can't pick off another oldie. At the rate she's going, I'll be having to play catch-up all year... :wink: :D

Thanks for stopping by and keep on swingin'... :thumbsup:

Way to go DD. The IHP is my favorite coin...someday maybe I'll dig one. Its great that you have something in common with your daughter. Mutual hobbies are such a great way to keep close with your kids.

By the way, you are soooo SEXY. That's you in the avatar, right?

Between diggin' and fishin' (you should see her jiggin' for Crappies :wink:), we stay busy. Thanks! :thumbsup:

That great! She's already whooped me this year. You go girl! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks so much Tim! Good to hear from you. I can only imagine the schoolin' she'll be dishing out in a few years. I'll be lucky to pull a memorial... :wink: :D

Congratulations DD on the first Indian Head, hope there's alot more for you. That machine is darn near as big as IZZY. LOL :thumbsup:

Thanks Seger - I have the 150 as short as it will go. She does alright with the "underarm" style... :icon_sunny:

Congrats on creating a monster :D That's good to see young ones doing something fun and productive ::)

Many thanks CJ - I try to stay busy with outdoors type things with her. We rarely watch tv (almost never). If we're not outside messin' around, we're inside reading and such. No video games in this house... :wink: :thumbsup:

It's great that you got your daughter interested at an early age. It will be a hobby that she will enjoy for years. I did the same with my son, and we shared many great hunts together, and it was him that introduced me to TNet.

Can't wait to see the day that she finds an old coin, and you only find clad or junk. Again, congratulations, and many happy hours of swingin.

She'll be 6 on the 25th of this month (goin' on 16 :D) - I'm happy as can be that she really enjoys gettin' out there with me. Crappie season is upon us now as well - that's a total blast with her! :icon_sunny:

Thanks for the kind words Neb. As much as she gets excited to dig just about anything, she does have a pretty good idea of what's real old and what's junk. My only real problem is trying not to kill any worms while cutting the plug - she's a nature lover... :wink: :D

Good deal on your first IH. I was surprised last week when you told me you hadn't found one yet. That ones not that bad. You should have seen the first one I found....

Your daughter looks cute with that machine.
