I had a real busy week this past week and didn't make it out at all. However, last week I found these on two short morning hunts where they were pulling some sidewalks.

Nice that you got to save these before the concrete was pored. Marbles are always a welcome surprise. Were you able to get a date off that Barber?

Man you are the king on those sidewalk tearouts! All the ones around me are roped off with no chance of detecting due to liability concerns etc. Way to go!
