    Sat and Sun With Rob

    We were able to get out both days. The weather was great and the pickings were good. Sat I managed 3 wheats and the 1918 merc and a 1948 rosie. Sunday we hit several areas and I got my 1st Budgie Model car. Of course we went back to our favorite park and I got the 1912 Barber and 6 more wheats. Nothing special in the wheats. I think I got another musketball and 2 pieces of junk jewelery. Yes I will say it......still no buffalo.....rats.

    Can we talk for a few minutes about the entertainment value of a hunting partner. Today Rob had made 2 good finds and was going for a trifecta when from across the field I hear this scream and he comes running over to me, jumping up and down, shaking all over. Now I thought he had a $20 St. Gaudines. He shows me this coin, its a small one and just before he hands it to me, he says darn its not what I thought it was. He was thinking a 3 cent piece but it turned out to be a 10 something from another country(foreign). Value of this experience......priceless.

    Thanks for reading

    Drew, If you look at my signature I am only listing finds in which I have beat last years totals. I need one more buff to beat last year, so then I can list them.

    Re: Sat and Sun With Rob

    Yes, I can be VERY entertaining in many ways
    I've always got a story to tell....and yes, I may even ON OCCASSION get giddy as a school girl
    It doesn't happen often (probably more often then most)...one of those times was finding the seated half...and most recently thinking I had a 3 center...I was sadly disappointed >:#..but AL had a GREAT LAUGH rofl

    But then there's always the entertainment of what goes on around you....like being in the middle of a drug bust in the park, like I was last weekend, or watching 2 crackheads smoke crack a few feet from you, or bums coming over to bum your clad....our hobby is an adventure
    2014 Goals: 20 Silver, 5 Large Coppers, 1 Gold Coin (not anticipating being able to detect much this year; NEW BABY HERE!!)
    So Far: (0) Silver; (2) KG, LC 1807; (2) IH; (3) Buff


    2013 Total: 36 Silver; 5LC (including 1 FUGIO)
    2012 Total:101 Silver; 11 LC
