110 Minutes in a Mud Hole/Future Ball Field

[jeff of pa]

decided to follow my nose today on where to hunt,
and decided to swing by Hegins Park.
As I got there I saw a Mountain of Dirt, a Dozed area and a few
Park officials standing around, so

Normally I don't bother them here by asking for permission , but since these were fresh diggins
and they were there I Walked over & Asked:

"You's building Another Ballfield ?"

he said "Yea ! You wanna Buy it ? "

I said "I wanna Metal Detect in it !!!

he said "Yea You Do "

"You can Do anything you want !!!! "

so off I went

Why, how nice of 'em to pile up the park in one corner "sandbox" for you to play. LOL

Good saves! I'd have asked them where the dozed up dirt was headed.

I did later as I showed off my finds.
the one guy said it will probably be spread out on top after they Build & level the playing field, as the fill they bring in won't be the greatest.
So I will most likely get another go at the top stuff

Nice silver, WTG. That dirt looks soooo nice and soft and fluffy. (unlike the frozen stuff up here)
ZDD

Good job Jeff, I would roll in the mud any day instead of flicking ticks like I did today.

Congrats on the silver quarter and the bread token find Jeff!
Kudos to you for having the guts to ask for permission while the supervisors were there too!

Here's an aluminum bread token I found last year,

Have you ever had a chance to hunt Amish land, since your in the general area? ...But you need to ask Lebanon Levi first..

 

[texjim]

It didn't take you long to get back into the swing of things... Nice job..

 

[Old Dude]

Well you certainly did better than I did today. Congrats to you!
