    Winchester found in park

    Haven't posted anything for a while, but can't resist that '73 Winchester found leaning against a tree in a National park in Nevada (Utah?). I own one identical to that one. According to the serial number mine was made in 1886 and was given to my Dad by a neighbor who was a Civil War vet...

    Got Permission today...

    About 8 or 9 years ago the state built a new highway around the East side of town and in the process, a house that stood nearly on an intersection was moved. The highway missed the site by about a hundred yards so the empty lot is just sitting there and I got premission to hunt it. I don't...

    Nice find yesterday

    I was near a school and found a gold bracelet. It has a girls name in thick raised letters on it and is really a pretty piece of bling. I didnt see any marks on it so I figured that it was a fairly nice piece of costume jewelry. Now I find very few things that have a name or any chance of...

    Finally got in a hunt today

    Year to Date Comparison

    By this time last year I had 48 hunts under my belt. This year: 1 I made a trip to the sled hill and found a solid block of ice instead of snow. I spent about 20 minutes there and gave up in disgust. I got promising signals but I couldn't get to any of them. I'm not happy! MrGee

    a present from my niece and a big surprise

    My niece called me last week to tell me she had a present for me. She works for a big retailer and found a 1903 Indian head penny in her change drawer. She bought it for a penny and gave it to me. A little worn, but not bad at all. I have to keep reminding her what a cheapskate she...

    It's March now...I'm ready to go

    On the 1st of March I put the batteries back in my detector even though there is still a foot of snow out there and not a spot of dirt to be seen. Now I'm standing by the back door with the detector under my arm, and the pro pointer strapped to my belt. Just wishing. It' s supposed to be...

    Gettin Anxious

    I find myself eyeing my detector and the batteries wondering if its a little early to mate the two up. I'm thinkin.....yep...considering that we still have over a fooot of snow and probably that much frost in the ground. Can't hardly wait to get to a new site that I checked out last week...

    looking at the bright side

    Up here in the frozen tundra detecting is pretty much suspended for the season (not being the macho man that SOME of you are). The bright spot is that we got snow early, and then another 10 inches on top of that which means that come spring there will only be about a half inch of frost in the...

    Finally got a pic of the necklace

    Found this yesterday near a school in a neighboring town. It's 14K gold with an amythest stone. I don't have a scale, so I cant tell you the weight. It's about the nicest thing I've found this year so far. Sorry that they arent as sharp as I'd like them to be. MrGee
