Got up at my usual 4:00 AM yesterday morning and headed out to a spot I had checked out once before. It was the park in the seedy part of town that I posted on several weeks ago. It is one of the oldest parks in Tulsa and there was a drive by shooting there just a few weeks ago. I figured the thugs would be too lazy to be out at this time in the morning and was right. I was well heeled however! The reason I went back is because I remembered I had not detected the "chips" and with the big holiday there shouild be some easy clad to be had. When I got there I found that someone had beat me to the chips around the playground as there was dozens of little dig marks among them. But since I was there I thought, "What the heck, you never get it all"! Clever huh? 
Even though it had been hit hard and heavy I still picked up a couple dollars worth of clad, mostly dimes and quarters and three nickels back under the playground equipment. You will get a lot of interference back in there but if you turn your sensitivity way down and go really slow you can often find missed coins.
Fireworks in the City limits is illegal and I couldn't believe all the expended fireworks that was laying around! The park was trashed out with trash and ugh, even several soiled diapers, in spite of trash cans available all over the place. I usually try to police up trash but this was so bad it was hopeless. I could have spent all day there and not even made a dent! This particular part of town is always complaining about not getting as much of the City $$$ as the rest of the City but then this is the way they treat a nice little park! Disgusting! They get just about what they deserve in my observations. The place was so nasty I didn't spend a lot of time there but I did pick up about $6.00 more in clad out around the basketball court and found half a ring with a diamond looking stone , probably zirconium. The rest of the ring itself had deteriorated and was missing, so it had been there for a while.
Just a little note on my almost daily sunrise adventures. JIM
