has been VERY difficult to do this past month! :P But we're trying! 
Not a bunch of hunting going on, but I have managed to get to the local park a few times. Always either early morn or late eve and might stay an hour or so. Got to hunt a site one day last week early with DiggerBug. I found 'Jeff' and a trigger and a dog tag.
On Tuesday evening at the park there was football and soccer practice at all the fields and I was hunting at the playground. No one there but me for the first few minutes. I look up and see this young boy running up. The first thing he said was, "I've always wanted to see one of those things! Can I help you dig?!" Of course I say yes and continue along explaining how it works and what the displays on the screen mean. I'd get a beep and he was diggin woodchips like nobodies business!
"A DIME! I FOUND A DIME!" He screams and he puts it in his pocket. After he had recovered a couple of coins, I start thinking..this might not be good if I were to come across a good keeper! :P So on the next hit, he sees me stop to listen and is allll ready to dig. I put my coil down really hard and gave him a look. I said, "I'll make a deal with ya, you get to keep the change and I get to keep the jewelry!" 8) "Deal!" he says! I ended up with two pieces and he got a pocket full of change. 
Guess that was the highlight of the week for me. That was one happy kid.
I thought about all you guys that are posting 100 coin days and thought maybe from the past few hunts I may have gathered up (or got to keep) 100...but no....99.
Nana's ready for fall!!!!!!!
