The weather was a little chilly, but nice and sunny. Felt good. Ground was nice for digging. Went to old home site and detect it some more. Didn't find anything real great. I did find a gear, a button (snap type), a metal valve stem, a small piece of some kind of metal, a shaft or crank for old tractor or car, and a big rock (not sure if it might of been used as a hammer or not). Plus the usual scrap. Nails, pieces of metal, shot gun end caps, and soda cans. Only out for a couple of hours, but had fun.
Thanks for looking.

You did OK KW!!! Just mark it down as "paying the dues" and tuning up for coin season. HH, Quindy.
 

Send me a bit of your chill, KW :D It's getting too sunny here. I was nearly BBQ'ed while detecting.
Dig out everything. Today it is a shaft tomorrow it will be a gold mine.

Tuatara, you can have all my chills you want. Tire of it. :laughing7: I pretty much hunted all the good signals.. So pretty much going for the all signals now. I know most of them are nails or pieces of metal. And wanting to get there right after they plow it. Hoping it might turn up more or get down in the groves and go deeper.
