put in an hour at a park I saw on a 1966 Arial shot, found 8" clad quarters and a little bit of other clad from the 60s, got fed up with it left that park and hit my other park I know I will get at least a few wheats from, squeeked out 2 toasty wheats and an even toastier indian, that was a surprise!

enough with the parks for a while for me, its time to start a door knocking!
thanks for looking and hh!! 20150402_200132.jpg 20150402_201751.jpg 20150402_201809.jpg

If you're worried about paying for your equipment with finds, you're turning it into a job. I don't think anyone actually goes out with the intention of being able to buy milk or a can of beans so they can eat lol. Detectors are just like phones. Some can make do with a flip phone, some have to have the newest thing on the market. Some people drive a Porsche, some a Yugo. We are all different. Now I have to stop before I start sounding like Al Sharpton.

Mine isn't a flip, but like me, it isn't smart either! Everyone has different priorities. I see people at work that complain they just can't make it if they aren't working 20-40 hours overtime every week. They are the ones that trade cars every year, their wives drive Cadillacs and their kids have the smart phones and still expect Easter baskets at 21 years old lol. Personally, I can't wait to retire and actually START living, lol.

That actually makes sense...kinda like " if there were no ugly people, there'd be no beautiful people".
Ok, now I am sounding less like Al Sharpton and more like Yoko Ono.

Chris, I am going to interpret Higgy's post as saying I really SHOULD post pics of my lonely round ball, so it makes Vino's Fugios and Abe's Pine Tree look EVEN better, lol.

Good to see you out hunting. I am sure that as the season progresses, your finds will increase. Good luck Chris, and please keep OD down!
