Im bored

[rock]

Ok I guess I will show some of my better finds from the past year well actually 8 months. All the fields are planted and I cant do any hunts at this time. I guess I will take up fishing for the summer and maybe if I get permission swing the MD some. Feel free to post your favorites if you like. Be safe on the 4th everyone! HH, rock

Yeah I hear the rain coming already and its 10 am. They said it would start this afternoon I guess its early. I was hoping to do something this weekend but if it keeps this up I guess not. I wanted to go to the creek but it sounds like it will be too muddy to see anything. HH, rock

Take some time while your not hunting to scout for better areas.. always be looking.

Ebony and ivory. I remember that!

I will and have but all have crops on them rite now. I dont see the sense to ask to look on the fields till they have been removed and are bare again. Fall is coming in a few months then the hunt will be on again.

Rock you never know where you may find artifacts. In a sense, I stay on a hunt. I keep my eye on the ground any place their is dirt. You don't have to stop until fall. Check this morrow mt. Out that I found on the shoulder of the road. It was in the mail carriers tracks right beside a mailbox.







No need to be bored. Just take a simple walk down the road. You probably won't find as much, but you will be occupied.

One thing I do is start some research on colonial era history of some areas and do some metal detecting in between.. I've often stumbled onto Native sites while doing that.
Good ground is good ground.
Also.. If you think about it.. It made much more sence to overpower the natives with superior weapons and utilize land that had already been cleared for paths and made liveable then to start hacking away at old growth forest.

Well impressive. On the bright side, as soon as the rain clears out in a few days there should be more ground exposed in some areas!

 

[urbantreasure]

Now that is what I'm talkin 'bout! Treasure is where you find it.

 

[urbantreasure]

That's a great idea!

Well we got 3 inches of rain in 2 days. Maybe later on in the week I might try going to the creek. Now some dont know this but when it rains here the banks are made mostly of red clay so it is really muddy water. In order to walk the creek you have to see the rocks or you might fall and hurt yourself. Ill wait till it stops raining before I go. 2nd day back to work and I am worn out. HH, rock

My hunting is about over for the year, too! Unless we have a early harvest and a dry fall. Then they will work up some ground, and I can hunt in the winter.The crops are overlapping the rows, and the turnrows are grown up in weeds. I never quit looking at the ground or hunting new spots, but its tough this time of year. Sure do wish for some of the rain that Rock is getting! Lightman

 

[rock]

You can have the rain. We have gotten 2 yrs worth of rain already this yr. Got a total of 5 inches since Wed and its now Sunday night. The sun was trying to come out today but I dont know if it ever did. Im not bored anymore I am back to work now and feeling more like my old self now. Starting to feel like going on a hunt again. Maybe this week I can hit the creek Ill see.

Rock,

With all that rain coming through your way, I bet it washed something good out. Good luck!

I hope you have done a hunt? With all the rain the grass needs cutting here. I hope to do it soon as the yard dries out some. I made a sifter out of a bucket today and hope to try it out in the next week or so if no more rain comes.

You might need to make a boat.

I have had two really successful hunts recently. I'm walking out of work now. Guess where I'm heading. I'll give you a hint. If I find any thing, I'll post today's with what pops and I found over the holiday. It has been less than ideal weather for hunting here as well. Rain and thunder storms every day. Couple twisters. I was picking at you Rock, with my other reply. Honestly, it seems like most members have slowed down a bit.

That ain't good news for me. I need the creeks to drop on down and the sediment to settle. Even the rain bands away from the storm aren't welcomed right now.

 

[GatorBoy]

I don't want to hog this thread with this.. but..if that thing slows down like they usually do when it makes that turn that's expected you may be in for some serious flooding.

 

[NC field hunter]

All of you guys are in trouble. It appears that parts of NC will see some action. Luckily (well if the storm follows the map and not a Tom Tom) it's going to go around me. Knock on wood!! Watch it plow through here like a Tasmanian devil.

Dang hurricane is coming now? I was waiting for next week so the creek could clear up some. I already knew where I was going to try and now more rain is coming. Crazy weather this yr and last yr we couldnt get a drop of rain. I was wondering if you ever used a tater rake in a creek?
@ GB this thread is more of a chatter than any certain subject. It doesnt matter to me who or what goes on it.
