Ground a bit frozen on surface but had some luck

Overall not to bad with the sun out. I searched a field that is local that had alot of activity on it in the early days.

Lots of doo-dads.
I was tired of digging pennies my hands were wet and cold
Necklace in the picture is costume.
Did have some luck though

Looks to be some type of key
Almost looks like raw copper

Top Jimmy cooks
Top Jimmy swings
He's got the looks
Top Jimmy he's the king
Oh Jimmy

Van Halen wrote the song about a dude that sang in a band at Whiskey Go Go in LA in their early years.

Hmmm, always wondered about that, one of my favorite VH songs. I saw them live in '84 in Ft. Wayne, right before Diamond Dave left.

Don't thank me until you see the pics. I wasn't used to Mike's camera and couldn't get close-ups. However, Mike did resolve the circular light that wasn't working the previous month. The whole strip of outlets along the wall do not work-but the small one underneath does .
