Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
well met a T-net member today (cman1348) for a bit of a cache hunt.
The most promising area was full of iron and metal roofing
from an old corn crib. After clearing out some of the area,
broke out the two-box and was loaded for bear. Got several
deep signals that turned out to be large iron parts. So we
came up empty handed. One hole we dug was a good +2 feet!
But did meet a really nice TH'er, landowner and his father-in-law. And it turns out the father-in-law is a MD'er too, and does
really well down the Jersey shore.
These were great people and a pleasure to meet.
It was a perfect day to MD - weather was perfect!

So my song for the day MD-wise would be...
some of ya probably know this song (real lyrics).

well we fired our detectors but the iron kept a coming
there isn't as much iron as there was an hour ago
well we fired our detectors but the iron kept a coming
down through Mississippi to the south of Mexico
we ran through the bushes and ran through brambles
and ran through places that a rabbit wouldn't go...
;D

two of the largest pieces of iron found are shown.
Chip found a merc which he gave owner and a horse
shoe!

1st pic reminds me of a vegitable cooker for a BBQ.

Nice! keep hunting!
 
Pretty exciting site.

Which two box do you use and how do you like it?
 
Garrett master hunter - I think it works pretty well. Charles Garrett is a top-notch guy and so is his company.
 
johnny horton -- battle of new orleans --- remember "sink the bismark" --- or "the good ship rubin james"
