Hi all,
I went out to a couple of nearby parks for about an hour today, even though it was extremely hot..the second park I checked was small but it had sand under the swing area, so I thought I'd give it a go.
After only a few minutes my forehead and eyebrows were dripping with sweat..I pulled up a few pennies here and a quarter there, then I saw this ring (my 36th ring so far this year) sticking out of the sand even before I put the coil over it.
When I actually did sweep the coil over it, it didn't beep in the mode I usually set for ring hunting, so I knew it wasn't gold or silver.
On the way home I stopped at the jewelers and was told it was made of titanium or stainless steel (drat!) However..
..it's big and heavy, it's very nice looking, and it has a little chain thingy in the middle that spins..and the best news - it fits my ring finger.
I found 2 other rings last week (both mood rings) at the same school..yesterday I found a clad Kennedy half and a 20 cent coin from Hong Kong at another school.
The biggest thrill yesterday though was seeing a doe and her fawn walking by the side of the road on my way to the second school..I pulled over and we stared at each other for at least 15 seconds before they both trotted off into the woods..it was truly a beautiful sight and worth the trip just to see them.
