Some nice finds Rick. I detected the Arlington res after they let the water out but didn't have much luck. Or maybe you beat me to it :)

Best bet is to go to doctor and have the "Full Lyme Panel" done. Tick borne illness can manifest itself in many ways! The sooner it is treated the less damage done and the easier to eradicate.There are other nasty illnesses that ticks carry also.

Went to another waltham site today. Modern bullets everywhere most 45 slugs, a rusted blade, pipe piece, a fake knife with a wrapped handle (have no idea of the use ) and my cool find a Reed and Barton silver plated fork number 8-40 from Metropolitan State Hospital. Control number and place engraved on handle. A shotgun shell to round out the day.

Got 2 battery cases and a coil cover Monday, the weather was uncooperative till today.

I went out to Metropolitan State Hospital grounds. My finds are .27 clad,a old machine screwdriver, a few slugs, various bits of metals. I did go past the graveyard, and opposite it to the north there was a homeless camp. They do like to gather junk to their camps. Exercise was good and that's what it is all about.

Saving the fields for other days went across the street and hit the abandoned house lot, a big lot with 3 collapsing barns fenced off. Walked the property there is the remains of a mill there. Hardly any pop tops or caps. I didn't get all of it not enough time but I pulled out 1 wheatie and .91 in clad nothing newer than 1999, no quarters at all. a padlock, jack knife, a TAKAGI Tourney crank arm, a pulley, a bunch of tags for plants, and various bits and pcs. of unidentified metals.

Dec clad count 5.25
