Newbie finds

Note: I've been trying to post this topic with pics for about an hour, and it's not going through.? I'll try to add pics later.

Hey y'all.? I just got my husband a metal detector for Christmas, and I have promptly absconded with it and made it my own.? ?

I tried it around the house a bit and found a bunch of nails and some old juice cans.? Then we went to the park and I found a bunch of poptops, along with the strange metal rock looking thing.? Finally we went to my daughter's school and I poked around on the soccer field.? Found my first quarter, a couple of pennies, and the big metal rectangle (hubby says it looks like a fence strap).

Anyway, nothing spectacular, but I had fun.? There was a spot on the soccer field that seemed to be about 18" long and very narrow - maybe old pipe? - but I dug down 5" and didn't find it, and night was closing fast.? Maybe tomorrow!

Thank you for the warm welcomes!

Gadget, I'll switch with you. It was 86 here in Austin today, and that's just wrong! I'd love to see some snow.

I checked around my yard again and found 7 more cents and a piece of roof.
