I finally made it back to the river and found hardly anything until I started across the park to talk to a neighbor about a propeller I found. Saw this man and his wife and little girl and didn't pay much attention and another couple were fishing off one of the docks. Then I heard the sound of his detector and he was using a Tesoro and found a token and lots of trash Iike I was doing. I didn't find any token but a small ear ring with no markings and when I headed across the length of the swim area to talk to a neighbor, I found a coin spill and recovered 4 coins. The man with the detector came over and I introduced myself and he works local. By the time I talked to the man next to the park, I was too tired to get back into the water and only got about 2 hours detecting. Found 2 more lures and got the treble hook from the little cleo spoon caught in my scoop and the hardware cloth and pulled it loose from the lure. Enjoyed myself but really wanted to spend more time detecting. Saw two long lines of geese in formation and talking to each other and I'm always amazed at what God provides to inspire awe and wonder in our lives. Found the second 1965 quarter and I must be getting close to silver, but not yet. Usually when I find a coin spill, I work around the compass in a square and usually find some jewelry, but got in too much of a hurry yesterday. That sounds crazy I guess saying I work around a round compass in a square, but what it means in my little way is I work east-south-west and north of the coin spill and most times I find something. Hope I can get back next week, but since I have to cook for the entire clan, it's doubtful. GL & HH.

Met a fellow dirt digger yesterday
- Thread starter fongu
- Start date
I believe I'm on the track for some old silver. I've found 6 silver coins at this park since November - 2012 and lost 2 this year. No date SLQ, 1944 mercury dime, 1952 quarter and 1934 quarter plus the two silver dimes I found and re-lost. I was talking to two couples the last time I went just before I left and one of the men volunteered to just follow me around instead of buying a metal detector. lol
When I get tired, I get careless I guess and sure make mistakes. I love this hobby and all the nice people I meet while doing it and just wish I could do it everyday. Thank God for the time I have for my hobby and the enjoyment it brings into my life. Mama says I'm easier to live with when I get to go dirt fishing and said she was going to run an ad in the paper for driving miss Daisy. lol Just kidding.
