It has sucked past few months to be unable to swing, but now I can tolerate it a a few hours at a time....naturally my first target was next to a fire ant mound, Ouchy!:BangHead:
So the clad was flowing at a new park, with old history....lots of trash too, then I found a wheat patch, which was a nice surprise. The Panama cent was a great find too!....
I called "last keeper".....which took a while.
Holy Crap!!!....A gold ring!!!.........SWEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!
I gently pulled it from its clod, and it practically floated out of my hand....junk kids ring.:censored:
So, here are a couple pics..... but look at the last one....

So, what is this button?......as you see, it reads "BiltmorE"
I googled it, but got stuck on the mansion, I don't think it's related.....

Thanks for looking!:hello:

Thanks for your concern Jeffy....yes, I've been unable to beep due to a couple of herniated discs in my neck.
Nerve pain in my left arm got to be pretty bad....I don't wish this crap on anyone.

Glad you were able to get out and do some digging!! That alone beat anything you could have found, not that a small pile of wheats wasn't a Sweet day.
And I bet the rush of possible gold got the circulation flowing a little better. Hope your able to make it out for a few more hunts.
