Hi everyone,I hope your all having a great weekend with lots of fun and great finds! If I told you the past 2 weekends have been crazy would you believe me?
:tongue3: lol
I'm so glad I took my extra bag with us, you'll see why soon. Last Saturday we didn't find much, Chug found a mood ring in the scoop, his second this year, the park we went to was clean, no garbage like you'd expect, we were glad to get out, having the river and sand to yourself is such a treat, everything is so quiet and peaceful.
Sunday, OMG....now this is when the extra bag comes into the story. We hit one of our favorite parks, at first we kept hitting bottle caps, nails, and the usual crap, can slaw shows up in the coin and silver range on buttercup 2.0 and Chug didn't do as good as he was hoping in his favorite area, so we walked down the beach, checking out where to hit on the way back, first thing I come across is a white tee shirt hanging in a tree, and guess what? It's in my size and it's a v neck!!!!:headbang:bonus! Chug found some pajama pants and shirt with them, of course they went into my bag. So did this cool flashlight, 20170723_075423_resized_1.jpg 20170723_075436_resized_1.jpg 20170723_100102_resized.jpg 20170723_075646_resized_1.jpg and this 20170723_075700_resized_1.jpg isn't he cool?! We also found a really nice man's sweater and a hoodie, my son got the hoodie and my brother from another mother and father took the sweater for church, they were both happy, I can't just leave things when I know there are people who can use it. I also found something under a bush, 20170723_094850_resized.jpg yep, a very nice water pipe! We also found out, vodka and rum makes her panties fall off! 20170723_091616_resized_1.jpg [FONT=&quot]We also found a really nice old hatchet that we gave to a friend who loves tools and camping. We went further down the beach and we see something stuck into a log that was tall. As we get closer we see colors and a very nice shape, we couldn't believe it when we saw it, holy cow! [/FONT] 20170723_074813_resized_1.jpg 20170723_094542_resized_1.jpg seriously[FONT=&quot]??? The wheels are new and the bearings are great, we gave this to a close friend who has a grandson who turned 8 yesterday, I got to hold him as a newborn and I've enjoyed watching him grow through the years. We made banana bread about a week ago, he was so proud of himself, he loves cooking![/FONT] 20170623_094008.jpg anyway, back to my bag, 20170703_082853_resized_1.jpg , 20170723_071715_resized_1.jpg 20170703_081043_resized_1.jpg 20170723_081850_resized_1.jpg [FONT=&quot]see what I mean? OMG by the time we got back to our truck I was so tired and sore, and happy!!![/FONT]​
Today we hit another favorite parks, normally I don't do very good here, Chug does better than I, I love coming to this one early, it's beautiful, even with the freeway close by. Chug was soon in the water, I stayed in the wet sand with not much luck, so much interference from iron and minerals, I'm still learning my machine, she sounds different in different places. Chug catches my attention and points to one of the lifeguard stations, and sitting there is a little leather, wet. 20170729_073752_resized.jpg

  • nice, a new purse!:headbang: it will work for me, has plenty of pockets and room for what I need to take with me. I found a buttload of sinkers, at least 5 ounces worth, and finally, after swinging my own machine for 6 or so years and on my 3rd machine, I found bling....serious gorgeous happy dance find!!!!!

  • its silver, I'm hoping the stones are real, buttercup2.0 went crazy when my coil went over the ring, not a real good signal, up and down went the numbers, I dig all signals, you never know. When I first saw it, I thought no way. I'm usually repeating to myself "please be real" over and over and I didn't do it this time! You know what I did? I cried! I've been finding jewelry but it's been costume, to find silver with ice, omg it feels so awesome!! I talked to my brother in law and told him what I found, first thing he says "you gonna sell it?" Seriously???? There's some things you just dont sell, know what I mean?
We checked out 2 other parks today, they were packed, things look very promising for tomorrow! Have a great night, take care and stay safe, and have fun!!! Thanks for reading, Red :hello:
BTW, cruising the gut was last saturday, here are some of our favorites! 20170715_181951_resized.jpg 20170715_174418_resized.jpg 20170715_174447_resized.jpg 20170715_175646_resized.jpg

Great story. I'm going for the shiny tomorrow. My buddy whooped me good today.

Stuff is where you find it. On my property we have found a total of 7 gold items this year. Unbelievable but it's true.

Was there anything you didn't find?

Congratulations on the silver ring. That's a pretty one too. I always pick up abandoned usable items. I can always find a home for them.
