I know hard hat areas (construction sites, sidewalk rebuilding, curb rebuilding) are good places to metal detect.
I know a hard hat area I'm staying out of - for two reasons.
First is that the area I am talking about is our back yard....the dogs (all 3 of em) use it for their bathroom.
That doesn't make it a hard hat area but the 2nd reason does.
Second is that the acorns are falling out of the oak trees (we have one in our back yard)

- the neighbor behind us has several oak trees too - and hitting things with a lot of force. At night when it is quiet and the breeze blows it suddenly sounds like people are shooting at buildings with slingshots and marbles....its just the acorns falling from the trees and hitting sheds, roofs of houses,garages, cars, picnic tables, etc.
Last year I do not recall a single acorn falling anywhere. This year they are everywhere. Year before last they had lots of em and big enough to dent the Pastor's truck hood.

This should make the deer happy...and abundance of food.
Also want to mention that the leaves are starting to change up here.

Not much more detecting time left before the white stuff makes its rounds.

Don't know if I did or didn't now. Wonder what is in store for us according to the FA?
