Metal Detecting
So far this year I have detected 20 new locations. Most of these sites were losers. However, five spots turned out to be productive, giving up old relics, old coins or both. Yesterday's hunt falls into this category. Three hours of detecting produced five silver coins: 1901-O Barber dime, 1941 Mercury dime, 1936 Washington quarter, 1942-P war nickel, and a 1941 Walking Liberty half dollar. I also dug two musket balls and a woman's hair barrette. This wooded site is roughly 100 acres, and has history dating back to the late 1600's when it was used for farming and grazing cattle. I'm hoping that future visits will produce some colonial era finds.

Bob, the blue dinosaur , was recovered on a different hunt, but wanted his 15 minutes of fame, so I added him to this last pic for your viewing enjoyment. Thanks for looking an Happy Hunting to all!
