Imagine getting to a favorite spot to dig wheaties and silver and find this ... except these were only 2 of them...

I spent 10 minutes walking around filling the plugs back in.
(And this isn't much of an improvement)....

It is apparent that the holes were dug while the ground was dry and left unfilled. The rain yesterday watered the roots but by then the grass had died.
If you have not heard it enough you will hear it one more time:
FILL YOUR HOLES!!!! The only thing you should leave behind is your footprints. It is uncaring or ignorant people who do things like this that cause us to lose places to detect. (Ignorance is cureable with knowledge).
If ya want to metal detect in that baseball field I have been talking about - fine BUT fill the holes in and take your trash you find with you.
Should I find more like this on future trips I will be asking the Neigborhood Watch in that area to take down license numbers and take pictures of the offenders. Thank God that the Township that owns the property knows me well enough to know I didn't do this.
Enough said!
