Thought I would give it a start for the March FOM. Anyone else getting out before the snowstorm?
 
Looks like some kids lunch money Steve........:biggrin:
 
Sled Hill finds? Nice little take for cold weather. Still to cold for me but I definitely got the itch.
 
If I have my pin pointer in hand as I'm crawling under the bleechers in the high school gym will my finds count for FOM ? :biggrin:
 
:rofl: Love it Jeff!
 
I actually went to a gravel parking lot that had been melted of snow last week. Found 41 cents. I was happy to be swinging the coil in the sun.
 
It won't be long now with the temps in the 40's for some surface finds :biggrin: but the ground will take much longer to thaw. Wow what a winter :ranting:
 
I work for CAT... Just name a local peoria area park for this weekend and I will have them drop us off a D11 and everyone can leave their diggers at home.... :detecting: Froozen Ground!!! No Probblem!!! :detecting:
 
:rofl:
 
If you can't drive the D11 Jeff, I know a guy that will do it for us. He tests all Cat machines and loves the big ones. Just tell me when and were. :twodetecting:
 
I have drove everything from a D11 down to a skidsteer... It's very had to see whats going on when driving the larger tractors because the blade is so big you really cant see anything.... I got to play with alot of the equipment at the Cat proving grounds about 4 years ago. It was awesome!!!:super: And no one got killed either!!! :beers:
 
Jeff, do you remember a guy named Bernie at the proving grounds?
 
Everyone knows Bernie.... Most people dont realize Cat has 2 proving grounds very close to Peoria.. Edwards Proving Grounds and Peoria Proving grounds which is where I got to spend a week driving and playing with a bunch of different equipment... It was a LOT of FUN!!! I got to drive a D11, D10, D6, D4, track hoes, back hoes, Excavators, wheel loaders, Road graders. Cat had a drawing that evreyone could enter for a chance to spend a week at the Peoria Proving Grounds and I won along with 5 others. They gave us our own area to dig in and do pretty much what ever we wanted to.... It was awesome!! :jump:
 
Knowing Bernie, is that good or bad? ;) Bernie is living with my mom and yes, they're a "couple". I still can't believe Miss Innocent has a live in boyfriend. Too cool if you ask me. An 83 years young woman to be so open like that. :thumbup: Mom rocks!

Bernie sure loves what he does at the proving grounds but he's slowing down. He loves the big boy toys the best. I mean the really BIG toys. I bet you had a blast operating them also. Those things are massive.
