Final Trip To The Soccer Field
I went out to the soccer field Saturday before dark for the 10th search and found a little more clad. I only searched a small area because I was saving the , what I thought, better area for last.

This morning I woke up about 6 am and headed out for the final search. After getting coffee and gas, it was about 7:00 before I got there. To my surprise someone had allready beat me to the draw. You could see the trails back and forth in the dew on the grass, and the little tuffs of lifted grass where they had recovered targets. The strange part is they hit only the last place I hadn't, and nowhere else. I'm not talking general area, I'm saying they hit the exact area I hadn't hunted yet. HMMMMMM. Oh well, I still found a little they missed.

By the time I finished it was getting way too hot, and my VID meter was blacking out on me where I couldn't read it. The detector worked, I just couldn't read it. So now I'm off to somewhere new that hopefully has a little shade. The totals of this field are as follows:
Quarters = 71
Dimes = 216
Nickels = 40
Pennies = 66
Kennedy Half = 1
Susan B. Anthony = 2
Silver Dime = 1
This field is still way too new and haven't had the time for finds to build up.
I never did find a ring in the whole place, and I hope my claim jumpers didn't either. But I'm off to bigger and better fields now.
