Hey, zoysters, the group and I got out to a new site. At first, we were trying to locate a new Colonial site that was in a wooded area, but it was too overgrown. You dudes should have seen us walking down STEEP declines. At one point, KirkPA slipped and fell, but recovered himself like a pro. He was laughing the entire time, but I heard the occasional curse word coming from his metal detecting mouth.
We couldn't find exactly where the Colonial site was located, but I think we will be back soon. But, I did do some ra-search on this site the day before and pinpointed another coppa-era site. So, we worked ourway through the foilage, jiggers, spida webs to this next site about 50 yards into the woods. On our way there, I saw a toytle (turtle).
After about 15 minutes of datecting once we got to our destination, I got a "Quarter" hit at 3.5". KirkPA watched me dig up a nice Coronet cent. KirkPA and Paco congratulated me with about 5 minutes of handshakes....this is what the hobby is all about, dudes!
NOW, to the best part of the day. I was gridding the area where I found my coin, when I heard someone "hooting and cursing." I looked up and saw KirkPA running with his detector while the entire time he was swatting at yellow jackets that were swarming him. He had about 10 bees on him and after each time he killed one by smacking it, he would state a really bad word that started with an "F" and ended with an "R." After I helped him out a bit, I asked him where his shovel was at. He stated, "Over at that dang hole...I was getting a perfect 50 VDI at 1.5"." Once I looked over at it, I noticed a swarm of yella jackets on his shovel...I would estimate close to 1,000 were buzzing around the hole he had dug. So,if you dudes want to know where Paco, KirkPA, and I are detecting, search the rugged terrains of PA and if you notice a blue digging shovel sticking out of the ground, detect! There are coppas still in the ground!
As Grubby would state, "White's strikes again." As Grubby would state, "Only the tough get the good stuff."

Zoy ran a 4.63, so he would have gotten stung a thousand times.
