I need more reading material this winter.
I’m just getting thru the first week after mid foot bone fusion on my left foot. Only eight more weeks non weight bearing than some therapy .
So I’m just sitting around.
I was not able to do much this last year as it just didn’t work out , time wise and physically .
Was able to get to the relic field once after harvest and was rewarded with some lead balls , a nice silver babble and the usual copper trash.
Guess I didnt get it all last year after 500 plus digs.
It’s a good long walk to get there and after hunting a couple hours didn’t think I’d get back to my truck (<;
I’ve got some other old homes to visit when things get better .
We have a Florida trip planed for April if all goes as planed, so there will be some beach hunting again.
I’ve got to say that beach hunting is alright but give me a field or front yard .
Last spring on the beach did find one nice ring and a bunch of clad but swinging the 17” coil and finding and digging corroded penny’s over a foot deep driove me nuts.
Couldn’t not dig them for fear of not recovering a nice ring .
I’ve got the batteries charged and will probably replace my screen protector and I’ll be ready if the machine still powers up this spring.
Hope you all have a Happy Holiday
