Found Something Way Better Than a Fossil & a Merc on Tuesday!
I got out a couple of times last week to hunt. The first site was a church that was built in the 50's. I have been there once before back in November of last year. Didn't find anything interesting in the grass back then but on my way out I did manage a silver Rosie in the gravel parking lot. On my return trip there Tuesday...same story....only this time as I was giving up hope for the site I got a Merc....in the gravel parking lot!
You would think I had learned a valuable lesson the first time! OK....lesson learned.....even though it's a pain...Ya'll don't forget to hunt the gravel too! Gotta get back there soon.
Saturday I had to make a stop at Walmart for a few things and the place was like a mad house. No parking anywhere close so I went to the side of the building where no one parks. There is a big wall of rock where they had dug out to build and my first thought was FOSSILS!
I got to spend an entire three minutes that my family would spare me there.... ![:-\](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/undecided.gif "Undecided :-\")
.... and I got a purdy little fern! Gotta go back there soon too! Then that afternoon I went back to a yard that I had hunted a few weeks ago but only found a spoon some change a pin some keys and a fake ring and three wheats.
And here is a picture of a place I'm sure some of you have seen if you travel on I65 on your way to the beach! It's a lovely place just north of Birmingham. Just thought I'd share my snapshot of the day with you.
Hope you have a great week~!

Parking lots(gravel) are good spots just hard digging, lots of trash and usually poor looking coins.
