OK Ok well Technically my wife's but hey...

Today 1/22/06 I took the family to a reservoir that has a beach, Thought it would be fun for the kids...

Started detecting the grass with my old bounty hunter first when my wife hit a (foil) signal with my old bounty huntersharp shooter 2, of course I had to dig it and only just under the grass was a gold cross, nice and heavy too. also found a lot of junk and half a nut cracker.

We hit the beach my Daughter(7) and son(9) found the jeep with there Bounty hunter Quicksilver.
And my wife and i just hit some clad and a gazillion hair pins (Who still uses them?), lots of pull tabs a tank, and a heavy silver necklace pendant with red white and blue.

I got my waders on and hit the water with my Fisher 1280x (cold Brrrr) and got a little clad, a silver earing, and a strange hair clip.
After all of this I was told by the park ranger that this beach gets hunted pretty heavy by 7 other MD's....well then I guess it wasn't to bad a day...

I'd say you and your family found some neat stuff and you had a good quality day out with them. Always nice to have a hunting partner. :) keep up the good work.

Very nice finds!!
What is it with women and jewelry? Bought my first wife a detector, and first time out she finds a white gold ring with 3 nice diamonds. I guess if they can't find it, it will find them.
Sounds like you had a good family time. WTG!!! HH

Wow, what a great day for your family. Wish I could get my wife to hunt. That would be great. Can't wait to hit the water, mmmmmmmmmmmmm I might have to get some of those wadders, since the lakes here in ohio aren't froze. Great Finds!! HH, Ringfinder
