What a moron. Thanksgiving night...dark...snowing...I hunted 2 hours anyway!!

[silverfreak]

I'll have to make this post quick because my fingers are still slightly numb! I just got back from my parents after feeding my face most of the day. I honestly had no intention of detecting but I threw the SE in the car as always when I head out of town. After eating turkey we watched the Packers game ...visited...then I decided to head home. By then it was only an hour from getting dark. Well on the way home I passed a small town and figured what the heck...so I decided to hit the old ball diamond that was used in the 40's and 50's. I just needed a quick fix and a few wheaties would have been fine but I ended up doing pretty well. Sorry for the quick post but seriously I'm still unthawing and just plopped the goodies on the scanner without even cleaning them.
I got an hour in before darkness hit and the second hour it was almost totally dark and I started getting pelted with snow!
Ended up with a gorgeous sterling silver band which is very ornate...2 Injuns 1892 and 1907....a 1923 merc...a cubscouts pin... 12 wheaties...2 very old buttons...and 8 frozen fingers...thumbs...not sure but I guess they're still there....just numb. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Thanks Evolution. I just know the hunting weather is 95% gone...so I thought I would sneak a quickie in. The Dallas game was a blowout...so there was no reason to hurry home

Thanks Panz. Yeah...I love the ring and it's in perfect shape. That site has been unused since 1955 so I'm sure the ring is from the late 40's or so.
