Some of the people in the parks are sooo rude! But I still got some silver!

Here I am metal detecting in large park and a group of parents and there kids decide to play soccer right where I am detecting!!?? ! I mean they have an area play that is 300 yards in every direction, but they decide to kick the ball around right where I am detecting! I don't get it!! Well anyway I had a good day! I dug 6 silver coins! and a buffalo nickel! A silver ring and some wheat pennies added for a really good start for the year!

Tough spot with a park and people. I stay away but if they decide to be some helmets; I always explain that they should call the cops and we'll all sort it out together. I always make sure I'm legal so the police will protect my rights....

I understand the pain and I'm glad you scored some round silvers

that plane kicks arse. grats on the impressive haul

 

[Terry Soloman]

Nice Silver!

 

[Loco-Digger]

Many people of the "Me" generations feel entitled and don't care about others as your post points out. Congrats, you madt the best of the situation.

 

[against the wind]

Congrats on an excellent hunt

 

[gearjammer]

That is a great start!!

 

[Trezurehunter]

Looks like you had a great hunt anyway. I'd take 7 (counting the ring) silvers. People are just plain ignorant these days. With all that space, they could have went elsewhere.

 

[Escape]

Nice finds! You have a good hunting spot.

I feel sorry for the kids. Not good parenting skills!

Ya, I work at a school. The problem is the parent's talk bad about the teacher's and the kids hear it, and don't respect the teacher's. Alot of parent's need to put there smartphones, and facebook down, and get back to reality. No dicipline at home, no dicipline at school. And of course, if Johnny get's in trouble at school, the parent said, "No way my little Johnny would do that".

Nice hunt there Cool Hand

I really like the plane. Hope it cleans up well and you post a new picture of it after cleaning!

Been There,
I just wander away to hit other areas. Maybe they feel a soccer fields is for soccer players. I wish they had detectorist's fields, then we can kick them off it when we arrive.
Great finds.

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Great silver score! Congrats!

That's why I hunt early Sunday morn, fewer people out. Some people don't play well with others.

Being rude seems to be the national mantra from the president down. Glad you found some silver and love the ring and plane and I never turn down a wheat penny. I like to get out to the parks when it's cold as it keeps most of the nimrods inside hovering around the heater, but can't get out too early until I give mama her medicine and cook her some breakfast and leave a lunch for her. I don't mind, but come to town for some groceries and get on the computer at the library and see all the great finds other members are finding.

 

[WHADIFIND]

I usually see that has a sign for me to be hunting elsewhere and I move.

BUT...one time, I had my fill of rudeness in a day. So, when the next group decided to start seeing how close to the detectorist they could throw their Frisbee. I threw it back. AND...of course I happen to be VERY bad at throwing these things! Last I saw it, was drifting along on the stream. Of course, I had thrown it back toward them. Not my fault that it made an approximately 90 degree left turn. Ya see, I just don't know how to control these things. (sorry...but even WIF has limits! )

 

[cjon455]

Hey with a fistful of silver like that I'd say the heck with those people, great finds!

 

[Subterranean]

As another Tnetter mentioned, go dig when it is too miserable to play sports or have parties, i.e., the heat, cold, wind, lightning, etc...That is when I get my precious solitude and own the field. Sub
