Bob, I'm kind of new to this and shy. I'd like to hide my thingies for myself whenever possible.

Dennis, all your posts are great, please keep them coming!

Paul (Clad the Group Hunt Bailer) made it out this way the other day, we hit the local park, I got this stuff, silver (rosie), glass(pumkinseed flask), gold(namepin) an early wheatie (19 umpteen something) and '42 cannuck cent. There were two others in the park, an old timer from points west and a newbie from points east. Didn't get their tallies but pull tabs were high among them as they were for all of us.



Is that better?

 

[rob.s]

No hunting for me in the local parks..Need to find new spots myself to back into the hunt.

 

[Gimmie The Loot]

Same thing happened last year. Hunting has been slim lately for me and will be for a while.

Hi Bob. I can't speak for everyone, but I'm out of action for a while after re-injuring my right ankle Sun. night @ work. It's a bad sprain, so I'll likely be stuck @ home (no detecting) for a few weeks. Bummer, I know.....

 

[DPBOB]

Hey guys glad to see a few responses.
Just stirring the pot a little. Gotta keep you on your toes....

Hi Dennis. I talked to Ron Shore at Windy City about that last Friday (I had to stop in to buy a new Lesche since mine cracked in half due to digging in hard ground). He said that progress is being made, but that there won't be anything definite until next year. Keep in mind that the Cook Co. board only meets once a month, so progress with this issue will be slow.

drought is killing my digs

 

[seekandfind]

Sheesh!!! I lived in illinois for 38 yrs of my life I cannot believe they are talking about banning detecting in Illinois forrest preserves!!!!!!!!!! What a bunch of #ssesz . We dont tell them not to baot and stop polluting water or jet ski and many other things that foul up our environment then metal detecting. I swear every day that goes by this country becomes more and more like a communist country, take this rite away ,oh yeah we dont like that stop that pretty soon it will be againt the law to breathe the air unless you got a license. gvrnmnt need to police their own and leave simple people do simple things. : harder on us than drug dealers and criminals in general. Azz backwards society. Sorry had to get it out Im really tired of all the crap goin on

 

[mrmackin]

Hi folks,

I joined just recently and was pleased to find out there was an Illinois part of the site. Should I post my hunting finds here or in the "Todays Finds" area? If I post them here will other people still see them that aren't in this Illinois section?

 

[DPBOB]

Do them in both Welcome

 

[treasurefiend]

Im just waiting to see about CCFP's, parks don't really do it for me all that much and im not to keen on sidewalk tearouts or knocking on doors. I dunno something about walking thru the woods enjoying the nature and stumbling across a random spot with coins & relics gets my blood pumping.

I hear ya Fiend. . . after a taste of Seated's, Barber's, and LC in the woods, silver Rosie's & Wheat's can get pretty stale after awhile.
