Metal Detecting Is a Drug..!

I'm going through withdrawals..!! The heavy snows hit the Virginia City, and Carson City, area as well as Lake Tahoe.
I live in Nevada.
I have tomorrow off.... But the ground is frozen..!! Oh my god.... Will I be forced to do "Honey Do's" all day..??
I'm so desperate to metal detect... I've thought about burying coins in the snow, just to see how deep I can find them as an experiment.

Go hunt and mark targets ( if the spot allows) then just freakin dream about thaw and what they may be.

Dude, I got it so bad, I have a “chiropractor appt” once a week to leave work a couple hours early and hit city spots. Usually amount to one actual visit to the chiro every couple weeks. Of course every Saturday and Sunday I’m out at sun up for a few hours. And then there’s the odd working late or stuck in traffic deal that buys me half an hour-45 minutes somewhere close to the house. So glad we chose to move to a town steeped in quickly disappearing history to keep me motivated! Wait, am I cheating??

I'm definitely a metal detecting junkie, this cold snowy weather has me going through withdraw symptoms.
Got all my gear cleaned up and new batteries in my pinpointer and detector, just waiting to strike when the weather breaks.

The winters in Wv are one of the reasons i never Returned to WV when i retired from the Navy. Waded all that white stuff i ever want to put up with. Another reason i did not return was my wife who is also from WV said "If you move back to Wv you will be moving by yourself."

A few years ago I spent jan to Mar in Point Pleasant due to illness in my Wife's family. I had cabin fever so bad that i nearly just got in the vehicle and left. I love detecting in WV as i have had some real good permissions up there. But the winters are too much for me.
 
Still waiting for it to seriously snow here. Supposed to get butt cold here next week (low teens) and chances of snow thru the weekend start late afternoon so I will be off the lawns for awhile. Yesterdays silver stoked the fire so guess where Im going this morning before the snow flies? Dang shiny stuff anyways......

ITS WINTERTIME--we used to have heavy severe snowfalls with bitter cold in ST. Louis, MO after I graduated high school & moved there--My oldest daughter was born Feb 1, 1956 wth snow on the ground & very cold weather! We haven't had weather like that for a long time --she is now 65! Even when on the farm the winters were cold with ice & snow in the 40's & 50's keeping schools closed giving my bro & me play time outdoors! Used to almost freeze before going indoors with cold swollen red feet & fingers! Oh, how they stung while warming up! Happy hunting & enjoy the SNOW! Ma
