Just like a zoo at Nana's house this month.
It's been a very busy April around here. And not the detecting kinda busy either.
My number three! I just love him!
I've been peeking in to see what all you've been finding, and I must say there are some pretty amazing things being found this month! And yes, a wee little bit of envy tried to creep in at times. But being happy busy helped keep that sharp edge from cutting too bad.
I did manage to get out a couple of times. Nothing to brag about in the finds department, but a keeper or two. First place was a pasture with a clump of daffy's that Lisa and I saw while driving down an old dirt road weeks ago. Happened back by the place and the owner was there. He informed us that there had never been a house in that area that he knew of, but he gave us permission with a warning of copperheads in the area and we started digging. Too bad we didn't get there a wee bit earlier in the month, as the grass is already getting pretty tall.
These two were looking out for us as we played...
Not too many keepers from there, but I hope we can get back when the grass has been mowed...
thimble, part of a silver spoon, overall buttons, Shell token , 1942 war nickel, flat button, wheats etc...
Yesterday we tried out a new spot. This was a place that had houses but were torn down due to being in a flood area. The city is making a new park there, but we wanted to hit it before they got it all spiffy. They had worked on leveling while the soil was wet, so when it dried it was like digging in concrete.
A couple of wheats, a sad little Tootsie car and a neat perfume atomizer and a bit of change...
The only thing keeping me busy this week is helping Charlie finish that darn deck he started LAST FALL. Maybe this week.
