My wife and I went out to do a little scounting more than anything this weekend....but couldnt resist stopping at our favorite field. I didnt expect to find much since snow is still on the ground....but the wind has blown it around enough to find bare spots. So, anyway, here are the flint chips and what I think is a stunner. Didnt go out expecting to find anything...but had a good time. I am posting more pics of the area we hunted on the daily pic page.

I guess I am really lucky that she enjoys this too. I have metal detected for years....and she didnt care much for that,, but she loves looking for flint....so it is awesome!
