I am leaving work and spending the last few hours MD'ing my sons schoolyard playground. School was founded in 1969...and thousands of kids have played on that playground through the years...My goal for today...

5 pennies
2 dimes
1 nickel
2 quarters
some jewelry...can be cheap, just think it would be fun

I have used me detector briefly over the last few days and dug very discrimately...this time i think i will dig everything that I can pinpoint just to see what we can dig up.

Well, I got to the school and the Basketball coach asked me if I run with the team to help him get ready for the district tourney. I did, which drastically cut my hunting time to about an hour.

The first 30 minutes were spent, like I said, with the discrimination set low and I dug every hit. I dug foil, bottle tops, and more foil wrappers than I care to keep up with. I got sick of it and set the discrimination higher and only dug those things I felt comfortable with. The last 30 minutes...3 dimes, 4 pennies, and my first token (nice one too). I felt like I was getting better at realizing what my detector was telling me.

Going back in the morning and going to try to spend 2 or 3 hours...i couldn't get under alot of playground equipment, it was too wet.

What...no pulltabs??? If you add some to your goals...maybe you wont dig any...lol.

But seriously,
I'd probably keep digging junk in a school yard. Never know what kids sneak in to show off at the playground, then lose it.
