OMG...OMG...OMG...Man down at tear out!

[PlzBSeated]

Tear out is coming to a close. Decided to check out some of the piles that the crew has flattened out in anticipation of planting grass. Got another soda can signal in one of the flattened piles and started cursing the crew under my breath. The crew has been very gracious and has allowed us to detect around the periphery while they work. Knowing that we detectorists are out there, I think some of the crew get a kick out of throwing their soda cans into the dirt just so we can dig them up.
Well I noticed a black cat staring at me as I went to withdraw another can from the dirt. Cat was even more curious when she saw this old man fall over. I couldn't believe what was lying there in front of me.



Sorry she's still a little dirty. Just want to be real careful cleaning her up.

Nice coin recovery. Oh, and at least they're tossing cans out there for you. Could be zincolns or something equally annoying.

Oh man this makes me want to get out there and detect along a sidewalk tear-out they are doing here in town...but it seems like the only time there aren't people there working is the middle of the night! Perhaps a moonlight dig is in order. That seated half is seriously making me drool....well done!!!
