I knew the ground would be mostly frozen but that temps climbed out of the gutter today and I just
had to scratch that itch!

Only went for an hour, was very limited where I could dig. But, ya know what?

Somehow, I'm happy anyway.

Here's the big take:

Strange lil moon-like lead ball.

Funny how something this fragile could last
soooooooo long in the ground.

Even found a whole wheat toast! Vintage 1920!

Somehow, I don't think Blingie was very impressed. LOL

At least I should be able to sleep tonight!

Thanks for peeking!

Congrats on getting out. like the lizard.
 

fun is where you find it, sometimes you have to alter what is classified as fun because of conditions
 

It was a good Day for treasure hunting, Whati! Glad you could slip out buddy, and I like the little lizard guy>...:icon_thumright:

Is that a inland bling ring? :laughing7:


I slipped out into the water for a few myself, when I got home had to shower n take a power nap.....But a beautiful day for sure..
 

I have been known to hit a graveled parking lot just long enough to score one clad cent, lol! Ground was frozen solid, but I hunted till I found that one lonely Lincoln that was on top of the ice...just to satisfy the itch. I believe we all know what you mean. I bet that boiler drain blew your ears off. Just imagine if it had been brass!

Yeah. Sometimes we just GOTTA scratch! LOL

And I can imagine what that drain would be like if it was brass, because, it is! LOL I still have a headache! :)

Thanks!

Yeah, the day was nice but what's needed is a string of them! :)

The little ring thing is tiny and I think it was part of a piece of jewelry once. Ones that know
the styles of making jewelry might be able to date the technique. It's a pretty flat oval with a
fairly solid round ring like a connector. Appears to be brass/copper. Maybe, part of a watch chain? :icon_scratch:

I'm assuming it's pretty old and for something that fragile to still be around after all that time. Amazing!

Thanks!
 

Get's in your blood WAF. i first thought that was a petrified golf ball-LOL. Glad you got out. It was 55 in Tennessee yesterday & now a wind chill in the teens this am. Not far to spring though Bud. HH, Q.
 

Whatifind

You know cause you have been there before, If I hit something brass in the water...That's a good sign. keep us informed..

Yep, it can be a good sign. A lil different in the land, but still. :)
 

Toasted was the only way the wheat could stay warm!
Congrats on getting out there and digging the frozen tundra!
With a little gold paint on the "ring" Blingie may let it slide!
If he as out there he wouldn't be going any where in a hurry!

I like the pitted ball thing it has character! A life well lived!

A good hunt WHADIFIND Congrats!

I don't know ammunition that well, but that lil ball strikes me as odd. Can't recall
ever finding lead with this crater effect. It is kinda neat.

The lil ring thing, kinda looks like part of a chain type something.

The best thing is that I was able to hunt, at all! LOL

Thanks!
 

Wish i could get out but with 12 inches of snow on the ground and another foot or more coming its looking more like the month of May
before i even see grass....:BangHead:
 

FB_IMG_1423242745754-1.webppretty much sums up how I feel about winter right now

Good that u were able to get out!
 

Ya somebody needs to turn off the deep freeze and the snow making machine. ASAP!

Yep you have to get out there and hunt....climbing the wall is waaaay over rated! Besides there's splinters!

At least you found something and scratched that itch, Whadifind. Now go give Blingie a couple flies or something!
 

Something to warm you up.
