    This just arrived in my email...kind of long.....

    I'm sure others can relate... So many letter writers have explained how this land is made up of immigrants. Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people why today's Canadian is not willing to accept the new kind of immigrant any longer. Back in 1900 when there was a rush...

    Conchita and I got out this morning..

    Didn't get much. Very corroded 1899 and 1910 cents and a little pewter button. Started raining earlier than usual so we went scoping new spots instead. Not sure if I told you folks about this before or not. Found this place about 4 years ago. We were driving along and spotted this field mound...

    Last Wednesday I went back to the woods....

    where I got the 14K bracelet a while back. Went when it was light out to avoid the landmines :lol: Spent a lot of time digging shells again but managed a few cool things. Some kind of mega axehead! [attachment 38900 axe.jpg] A real nice brass bell and a whatsit. Found a couple of theses...

    Wess came down two weeks ago....

    and we were hoping to do some old house sites. problem is there has been so much rain that very few farmers have been able to get their crops off the fields. After hitting a couple of mudholes we ended up at my Rev war period spot in the city. Wess got a really nice 1812 British artillery button...

    Spent another day at the big construction site 3 weeks ago...

    While driving by a few days earlier I noticed that one of the big piles of topsoil was missing and thought it had been spread out. Yoohoo!! Got there around 6 am and started hunting at 7. Half an hour later i glanced up and saw a big Mercedes crawling down the gravel road. I'd had no way of...

    Dodged the rain a few times over the past month...

    and found a few things but nothing special. These are from 4 weeks ago in the woods up the street. The Egyptian style bracelet is cool. Wish it was in one piece. [attachment 38893 woods1stuff.jpg] Thought I'd show you folks why there'll be stuff coming out of there for a while yet. I took these...

    Mystery Good For Token...

    Anyone ever heard of this token. I found it in Ontario but that doesn't mean a lot. Can't find any info on the net or at the library. [attachment 35632 sept4th2006finds1.jpg] [attachment 35633 sept4th2006finds2.jpg] Many Thanks, Chris

    Went back to my favourite woods yesterday.....

    to give jewelery hunting another try. My hat is off to the folks who have the patience to dig all those low signals looking for gold. I certainly do not! I spent 10 hours digging every pulltab, foil blob and 22 shell I heard. Not one of them turned out to be gold. Filled a small coffee can with...

    Last Sunday's Hunt.....

    wasn't much of one :lol: Conchita dropped me off around 6 at a woods I had high hopes for and the very 1st thing I did in the dark was step in a big pile of dog doodoo! I've never seen an area so littered with gun shell's but so devoid of finds. I think I dug every gauge & caliber ever known...

    Got out to the woods for a while today....

    pretty wet after Saturday's rain but that probably helped. Got a pretty decent 1880 dime. The worn big penny is a 1901 and the Buffalo a 1916. Both from the same hole. Also got my 1st Good for token and I think its from a bar :smile: [attachment 34451 sept4th2006finds1.jpg] [attachment 34452...

    The Atheist & the Bear

    Dean sent me this last night... An atheist was taking a walk through the woods. "What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself. As he was walking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. He turned to look and saw a 7 foot...

    Went into the woods for a few hours today....

    Finally got rid of the stomach bug last night with a good dose of garlic :thumbup: Spent a lot of time digging gun shells & bullets hoping for gold but no luck. I did get 1889, 1905 and 1914 little nickels. That brings the little nickel count for that area up to 94. Thought the New York Transit...

    Last Sundays Hunt....

    Between work, family get togethers and some kind of tummy bug that has me off work today haven't had much time for posting so this is old news Went to the 1st spot Dean & I went to a couple of weeks back when he pigged out on bullets. Its a large construction site and the topsoil is in 30'...

    Got out with Dean yesterday...

    He got here at 8 just as he said he would (love it when folks are on time) and we headed for the construction site where I found the bear teeth a while back. The top soil is still in piles though so after an hour of walking around on the hard packed clay in 80 degrees and not much to show for it...

    Got it :smile: ....

    Went back to the site where I found the engraved cuff button and found the other one :thumbup: It was about 300' from the first and I got it in the 1st ten minutes of a two hour hunt. [attachment 31911 august4th20062.jpg] It was in a wet area so not in as good a shape. The shank is very bent...

    Went back to the park I found the Mexican 2 reale in...

    Didn't get anything that old but not too bad. So hot today! The 1902 cent is in great shape and I don't think I have a good one in the box. The 1917 little nickle and the rotted 1913 were in a hole with 2 1922 cents. Nice to find spills but sometimes its hard on the coins. The button in the...

    Yesterdays finds...

    Went out yesterday intending to do a new spot on a wheat field. Unfortunately with all the rain we've been having it hadn't been cut so I went to a spot I've already hit twice this year. After spending about 3 hours there with only 1 very worn 1840 Harrison campaign button I decided to hit a...

    Question for the hunters....

    Last week I was hiking past a golf course that is in the middle of my town and saw a small herd of whitetail. All were very dark & small animals. Nearly black and none would have gone over 90 lbs. Yesterday when flailng about in the wasteland on the outskirts of the city I saw another group...
