    If your area has low humidity getting in the shade might not cause a drop in temps but around here the high humidity causes a terrific change in temps & comfort. Here's some places to try maybe : Under bleachers with dirt areas. Ramada's with dirt floors. One guy really cleaned up at a Boy...

    CW digs

    Hit a field that I have done before many times. It was & is a Civil War site. Dug the 3 ringer, piece of pretty pottery, a porcelain button & a coin.

    Relic digging today

    Today I wandered over a huge field that had been a Civil War site. Dug these odds & ends - 6 large round balls (69 cal); few rivets; single ring bullet around 44 cal or less. Nearly a 4 hour hunt = sure wipes me out as I get older. Steve in so la

    One doesn't need a super site -

    to recover a super find . Here's your typical kiddie spot of swings - kazillions of them across the USA. At this one some time back I dug a few coins and then this gold tennis bracelet with 28 diamonds. Had it appraised at 200 bux. That was some time ago so it's probably increased by now...

    Lotsa nicks

    I went back to the same huge site that I have been working for about 2 years now. Got 37 coins including 9 nickels. I am down to digging the quieter sounds now, having taken out just over 1800 coins so far. Don't think there's much left to do but it's always good to keep a site like this on...
