At the crack of dawn Mike and I headed out to the old field. It was just plowed and the walking was kind of tough today. We lost a lot of depth because we had to swing above the clumps. Most of my finds today were only an inch or two deep. I got 2 interesting buttons which I will need help indentifying. HI DAN :waving: I also got the KG which was sitting on top of a clump of dirt! No digging required. :grin: I lightly cleaned the buttons and KG. I will try to clean them a bit more if needed for identification.
Later in the day we headed up to a local farm. We have permission from the son to detect this place. He also has a 100 year old farm in another town that we will be hunting soon. The son wasn't there but we talked to the Dad. He was really cool and very interested in the things we find. The location of this place is a 2 mile road in the historic district of town. His family is the oldest living family on the road. He had to run about 1/4 mile up the road to his Moms house to cut up some firewood so he told us to follow him and we could detect her property. |:cheering: We detected for a bit and found nothing but clad. The Mom, the son, Mike and I sat at the picnic table talking about the history of the road. Its like we knew eachother for years. The even offered us lunch. All the houses on the road used to be farms in the 1800s. Across the street was the original post office of the town. He got us permission to hunt that place before we left. He said he will get us permission to hunt the whole street! :bananadance: All in all a great day. Had fun and met some new friends.
