Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
It rained most of the day today but was able to get out about an hour before dark. I decided to check one of the farm fields to see if it had been plowed and boy am I glad I did. The field surrounds an abandoned farmhouse and had just been plowed the day before with a light rain that settled the dust. My first signal turned out to be a 1943 Walking Liberty Half ... woohoo! I also found 3 wheaties (1920, 1945, 19??), a heavy metal disc whatzit about the size of the half, a square nail, an old cold cream bottle, and a few other whatzits. It was a great hour of detecting!

Those are the only three I've found, 2 of them this year and 1 last year, the 1 last year was super deep, couldn't really tell it was a coin for sure, I just figured it was non ferrous so I dug it.
 
Great day. Sometimes some of best finds come after a fresh cleansing rain onto a newly plowed field.
arrowheads seem to surface under these conditions also.
 
very nice! a walker is on my short list of things i still need to find!......i reeeaaally want one! ;D
