I went out this afternoon to drop off some of my flyers at some old country homes & farms. Hopefully I can score one or two.
On the way back I hit a volleyball area at a community college. This sand was super clean as far as trash. Not one pull tab! I found a whopping 59 cents in clad, but my best find was a 10k gold wedding band right underneath the net! I figure someone must have tried to spike that ball, and "whoops" there went the ring. :'(
It is a size 7 wedding band with "Artcarved 10K" on the inside.
I love when you see gold staring back at you. ;D
Here's my video for today:

I hope you are all enjoying your holiday.
God bless America!!!

Doug, I hope you can land a few new farms to hunt. The permission could also lead you to other areas recommended by the landowner.

That 10K goldie should keep you warm for quite a long period, my good buddy! :thumbsup:

Here's to possibly getting permission for another ancient farmstead. :occasion14:

Thanks Booty.
These volleyball areas seem to be hit or miss. Sometimes I walk away from one with only a coin or two. I was 15 minutes into the one today and didn't have one signal. :'( By the time I made it to the net area I had a whopping 17 cents. Then the gold showed it's wonderful self. :wink:
The other two gold rings I found last year in a volleyball area were only about 10 feet from each other. I gridded it off, hit a ring in one row, turned around to come back on the next row, and hit the second one. :thumbsup: That was a great day! ;D

I will take gold any time MM Congrats on this one.

Nice ring MM and video too. I see you have put the video on photbucket. Did you have problems with youtube, or is photobucket easier... Just wondering..
 

That's a nice way to celebrate the 4th :thumbsup:

Nice ring, Doug! You can never go wrong with some gold in your pocket. WTG! :thumbsup:

Now go hit those homesteads!

Cheers and HH,
