I managed to ruin my back over a week ago trying to lift stuff like I was 25 again.:BangHead: Between that and 100+ degree weather, I've been sitting things out.
This morning I decided to get out for a short walk before the heat to see what my back was going to do.
I hit a very tiny park I had never noticed before. Nabbed the 925 ring almost right away. Managed to hunt for about an hour before my back informed me that we were done.

$5.46 in clad, a Hot Wheels car, a kitty bell, a Monopoly hat game piece, a bling ring and a 925 ring with pink and white stones.

Going to try and hit a Tahoe beach tomorrow and see what I can find. Water hunting is definitely easier on the back!

Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Nice hunt, the heat has been unbearable. Glad you made it out.
 

It’s hell to get old! My back is shot too. One hour is all I can do at a time. Swinging the detector isn’t too bad, what kills me is digging and recovery. The lure of buried treasure is strong! I’ll keep going as long as I can.
 

Good to see you managed a hunt, and it's great therapy as one can go fast/slow as they want.
Many times I'll have a back issue where detecting will actually loosen it up, and get it feeling a tad better.
Then there's the times where the knife feeling is all too present.
 

Very nice items. Back issues are show stoppers a lot of times. I’m glad you got out there.👍🏼
 

That ring is a beauty. Congrats!
