Ice is almost 2 feet thick here, can hardly wait til our water temp rises all the way to 32 so I can water detect again.

You folks up north need to get creative, create an attractive winter beach activity to keep those fresh drops in play. Given that Curling actually made it as an Olympic sport then anything is possible! 
I was in Delaware Thursday, Friday and Saturday digging. Had the best three days of digging in 20 plus years. If it ain't frozen hard, go detecting. If it's frozen, bring a mattock! Once upon a lifetime ago, while looking for pewter Rev War buttons, I found an almost frozen ground gave up more buttons that when encountering any other type of conditions. Never did figure it out though.

Actually some of the sledding hills are great places to detect, however, its still not a lot of fun to be outside on days like today, our high today was 3 but what the heck, that's above 0. You'll have some more competition in FL in 7 years when I retire
