    Great 2 hour hunt and wife gets big silver

    Today the wife and I went to our favorite woods. It was very cold, low 30's, and we didn't get out until about 3:00. But 2 hours of cold hunting til dark is better than nothing.
    She gave me a Tesoro Vaquero for Christmas and I have been itching to get it out in this woods.

    We went to an area where we have had good luck in the past with multiple silver and wheaties and it wasn't too long before my wife came over to me with a big grin on her face. I said something like, &quotyes: the look on your face, I bet you found a half.
    And I was right!

    Congrats to the wifey for getting her first half and a Walker at that!

    As soon as she left to go back to her spot, I got a good signal and dug a silver Rosie!

    At the end of the 2 hour hunt, I had 2 Rosies and a 42 Washington quarter along with one wheatie. The wife found 8 wheaties to go along with the half.

    She has really been burning it up lately with her Cutlass II. I am glad I have the Vaquero so I can keep up!

    My Finds:



    Wife's finds:



    Tesoro Vaquero, Tesoro Golden Sabre II, Tesoro Cutlass II µMax, Grey Ghost Headphones, Garrett Pro pointer
    Oldest coin, 1732 King George II Halfpenny

    Howdy Amigo!
    That's some good ground you got there. Nice going on finding silver and congrats to your lady on the Walker she found. Bet she was pretty excited about that one, eh?

    Hope you get an opportunity to get back there soon to keep that silver coming in!

    Blessings,

    I know, I was looking real hard for a war nickel. lol
    I find them pretty often in this woods so it wouldn't be that far fetched- although I wasn't thinking about getting 50 cents as much as hitting the cycle with a wheatie silver nickel, dime, and quarter.

    Great digs!!

    The WLH is beautiful. She did very well.

    You did quite well yourself.

    It's nice to hear you are enjoying the hobby with your wife. I'm still working on mine to get out with me.

    Great hunt all around!
