    The last two hunts were short but productive.

    Back from the dead (almost)

    Nancy and I got in a little detecting last weekend after taking a break for a few years. We can't hunt like we used to but it was nice to be able to do what we did. Heart surgery to correct 5 problems slowed me down quite a bit and just when I was feeling better, I slipped on ice and broke my...

    New hunting partner

    A new addition to our family, Zach, a two year old Boxer. Major was getting pretty down with the passing of Maggie and he needed a new playmate. (Well....... us too) Zach loves the outdoors and gets so excited when we go on our camping/metal detecting trips. I guess I have posted one of these...

    This is a sad time for the Peoria Area Treasure Hunters club (PATH)

    Four people have stated they want to join PATH in a little over a month and no one has even answered the easiest of questions. This club used to have over 50 members with four to five thousand dollar club hunts, three fun hunts a year with prizes, monthly meetings with awards and prizes and a...

    A new 1st in 37 years hunting

    My first U.S. silver dollar. I heard they were out there, but up to now, that was just a rumor to me. o_O It looks like a lawn mower found it before me, otherwise it would have been in very nice condition.

    Old house hunt

    Nancy and I have managed to get out a couple of times so far this year and have found a productive yard that is giving up a few goodies. This is what I found yesterday.

    CW Relic find

    but not by metal detector.......... second hand store for 37 cents :clapping: Nancy found what looked like an old fork with the initials USSC on it and the price was right. I checked out the USSC and it turns out to be United States Sanitary Commission that Abraham Lincoln signed into law in...

    Happy camper

    It looks like the last camp out of the year last weekend. With freezing nights for the next two weeks and beyond, it is time to winterize the camper and look forward to next year. What goes well with camping is hunting and I did manage to get a couple of hours in at a small town park where I...

    A couple of hunts

    while camping produced a few goodies. A couple of Barbers, an 1888 IH and some wheats was worth it. We are trying to get some hunting in while we can, winter will be here before before long :thumbdown:[attachment 362364 1029181527_resized.jpg]

    Drained lake finds

    They are draining our lake for a fish kill this week so I had to take advantage of the old swimming hole from the 50's to mid 60's. Far from being the first to hunt the beach still yielded some nice finds with the 3030. All of the silver was 12 to 16 inches deep and that was probably why it...

    The rain has stopped :clapping:

    So I went out to Lake Eureka that is being drained for a fish kill next week. There was lots of holes dug so I was not the first to get out there but plenty of goodies left to find. I had a great morning with 13 silver finds, 3 quarters, 7 dimes, two war nickels and two silver rings. 13...

    Gone camping

    We had a chance to get a way for a few days from work... boy was that needed. We had a great time and even found a little time to go hunting. There was an old ball diamond that I have worked before but digging and hunting was just perfect and I was getting some deep targets in the 8 to 9 inch...

    National Metal Detecting Day

    was a blast and the weather even cooperated in spite of the forecast. We went to the big Minelab sponsored hunt in Galesburg and saw a lot of old friends. I think everyone had a good time, the ones I talked to anyway. I heard there was over $27,000 in prizes and coins to hand out or find to...
