Albeit all coppers was still nice to get quota plus 24 from one hole. Personal best for number of coins in one hole and fastest quota.....under 5 minutes with the Freedom 3 Plus (no# of 2 of 3 Pluses still working)! Hope to repeat that feat on my next UK trip. Here luckily no finds officer...

Once upon a time not so long ago in a land that was not far far away lived Blue of Nose. A simple man of considerable years , sparse of hair,lover of mead and devote follower of the "Order of The White Orb Swingers." Blue lived for his wife, Hunny Bunny who was rumoured to be a Naysayer. A...

0525hrs! Marie gently hollers in my ear asking me am I awake. "No dear I'm not!" "I got a hankering for something" she says! Well she got my interest with that and then says, "Will you make me some corn chowder today." Such is the life of a Bluenoser. 0545hrs and she is off to work while I...

Headed out today mid morning to a school a tad done the road. Nitro moment there as I hit one of the older $1 coins...the one with the canoes on it but it was not silver. Dug up a Santa pin , a dinkie,buckle,watch lighter plus quota +14.

Down the highway, to the dirt road, that led to the campground, that was in a field, by a tree strand beside a river. Once again Lloyd had given Navy Davy and I permission (5th year) to hunt his campground. Explained to him we wanted to stay out of the wooded areas as deer season opened last...

A cleansing was required. Not one of the body but of the soul and mind. Day to day stress with it's relentless hounding had to be purged. Digaholics know how to accomplish this. The Freedom 3 Plus was placed in my cars trunk. The parking lot was vacant; or so I thought. Before I could exit...

Decided to spend some quality time with my pa so it was off to steak darts at the 50 Plus Club. Hell it was nice to be the youngest amongst the crowd. Got paired up with a couple of nice blue haired ladies and promptly lost 4 of our 7 games. No steak there.....strike one! Tied my father for...

Friday.....day off.....oh joy! With the mandatory stop at Rotten Ronny's for coffee and a breakfast sandwich, which I might add that Navy Davy won a free medium fries on the Monopoly game we were off down the highway. Drove to a not so local park that we do once a year. Air was crisp, grass...

In keeping with the ghouls , goblins, ghosts and macabre here are some photos of finds and things i have seen while detecting...be scared!

Woke up well before the sun. Was blessed today as the water was shut off on our street so no wash, no dishes or baking a cake. Decided there and then that another visit to the park down the valley was in order. Took the Pro and Freedom for the journey along with a Rotten Ronnies cappuccino...

Neither the rumour or wind of war had reached Windsor. Marie and I hit the park where the Labatt's Brier tokens had been found the other day. Needed to dig up enough coinage to help with the resistance movement in Kentville. It had been invaded and was now occupied by the Pumpkin's Army Group...

Decided at the last minute after picking up my computer at the repair shop to go for a dig. Never ceases to amaze me how the Pro and Freedom 3 end up in the trunk! Altered machines once again starting in one park with the Pro for half the quota and a nice little silver ring then moving on to...

Took advantage of our super nice weather and headed towards Windsor where I planned on a few visitations. First stop was at "Makingholes" who is now retired from the hobby due to health issues. Good to chew the fat. One can tell he still has the desire to get out there if he could. Next on...

Started on land with the Freedom 3 Plus and finished in the water with the SeaHunter Mk11. First part of the dig on land was a wet one and had to bag the detector. Second part of the dig in the lake was wetter as my left boot in the chest wadders has a leak. Key, junker ring, pants button and...

Yesterday saw a major car repair to Marie's Donna May....................ouch.Gets a guy where it hurts....in the wallet.................no joy! Later in the day it was the trunk full of Garretts heading off to a field...........oh joy! Found an angel with the Freedom 111 Plus (2nd one I have...

Wandered out alone today ending up at a sports field. Things back to normal swinging the Freedom 111 Plus with the Pro in the boot of Nogo as the back up. Quota plus 16 @ $19.31 along with a gold hair dewie,golf egg and part of a metal watch strap. The fund begins again! :shocked02:

On time I left from the Halifax Robert Stanfield International Airport Heathrow bound with Air Canuck. With boots on the ground it was the usual route by tube and rail where my mate Jim picked me up at the Newark Train Station. 16 days to dig, 16 days off work with the only bad part was 16...

Leaving this evening for 16 days with my mate in the UK...........................digging Guinness and mushy peas! Quotas this year sure put a good dent in the cost of the trip but not in the range of past years....must be slowing down big time. Get to visit my stamp dealer there and have the...

Seems like a life time since I got out last as I have worked every day off for the past few weeks. Navy Davy and I headed out at 0730hrs did the dew at a park. He on land with his Tecknetics and I in the drink with the newly reconditioned Seahunter Mk11....Myra at Garrett....a big thanks...

Thanks to all that entered. The winner was Kelly from the Maine Forum with a guess of 69...actual number of medals in the drawers was 71. May many finds find you all!
