Went out this morning for the last hunt of 2010. Just too much snow in the woods. I stayed in the woods for about an hour then headed over to a school field that had spots of grass showing. My 1 and only target dug was a 1958 Wheat that took a full 10 minutes to dig down the 6 frozen inches :bangahead01: Tomorrow its supposed to be 48* here on Long Island. Maybe I'll try the school field again. Enjoy the night folks!! :happydance01:

Those photos both make me cold :frozen: and make me wish to be out there! What a peaceful looking place. And hey, you found a wheat so it was worth it :happydance01: And a pulltab -- it seems fitting that you should find a pulltab on the very last day of the year, given your name :happydance01: :) thumbsup01

Glad you were able to get out and have some fun :)

I admire your gusto thumbsup01 Last week I tried hunting in the snow... there was about 4 snow and 25 degrees, but the sun was shining I was determined to dig some silver. It started snowing hard and the windchill felt like 20 below. I gave up after diggin a zilcoln. Thanks to my Lesche I got from you I might add! lol
