Whilst I was out casually trekking in the desert yesterday, my wife was worrying that our house was going to get rearranged from the torrential downpour.
I had no idea anything at all was going on. When I got home my street looked like a rocky creek bed, but alas, the house was fine. 🙏
Anyways, here's the junk I found:

Plenty of targets, just no coins to be had.
This place dates from 1874-1906.
Weird looking little threaded cap with a pointy end :dontknow::

I think this was a small pin on item:

Found a few bits of turquoise:

And another neat little specimen (chrysocolla?):

Nice little name tag with no name:

Interesting little chain thingy:

Sheffield plated spoon:

And other random junk:

The best part was: I didn't get wet, and had a nice day in the dez!

Glad the house is safe and all is well…
The thrill of the hunt will always bring us joy.with or without recoveries.
All the best my friend…
