Weekend road trip nets tons of finds!

[Mike Moutray]

Had a 3 day weekend off work and I took a road trip up into Iowa to do some hunting. Although the sites are pretty well hunted up there I managed to bring home a nice batch of loot. 20 Indians and 20 pieces of silver, nothing spectacular but a nice reward for a long trip and crippling my knees with all the digging!
