    Good day today

    Hit one of my farm fields today for about four hours. The last time I was here I got skunked. I did much better today. Not many finds, but I'm happy with what I got.

    I wouldn't mind getting skunked every other day if I could make finds like that.

    Nice score. With the majority of places I hit, it's the quantity that lacks so I have to try for the quality part.
