Ron and I headed down to our construction/demolition site this afternoon hoping to find new
areas to hunt after the crew finished up another week.

The snow had melted away from two yards we were not able to hunt last time we were there.
Unfortunately most of the ground was still frozen in these yards, but we were able to find big patches
of soft ground. We mainly focused our efforts on the parts of the yards we could dig. :rolleyes:

There were many targets in the sections we hunted to keep us busy digging. We both ended the
day with two silver coins each. :happydance01:

It was a nice surprise seeing the Barber at the bottom of the hole. <:

A couple of Chinese coins and a generic token.

And a tiny rosary and case.

All in all... a great day. We just need about a week of 40+ degree weather to really get the ball rolling.

So far 2012 is off to a great start. I have six hunts in so far with at least one silver from each one.
Hopefully I can push it to 7 for 7. :cheesysmile:

Another Barber, and this time it's a quarter! :smitten:

You are really having some terrific success early in this new year, Joe! I can't wait to see what you find when the ground thaws out! :->

I hope this streak continues for you all year long! thumbsup01
