OK well its still a tad warm but i went diggin :D...

Well good news was I was hitting the ghost town not far from me
The bad news was when I was loading the truck up in the garage I dropped my water bottle,holds about 1 gallon but didnt notice the leak till I went to go diggin :(

Well a typical Florida August day here sun was blazing and humid but I was goin diggin anyways :lol:

Started my walk and right off the rip I got a roundball :clap:..ok good start I said.

Well I kept scanning and dug up some rivets and shotgun heads and scrap.
In the mean time my water just was leaking so I said heck and kept drinking some every so often so not to waste it :D

After about almost 2 hrs I headed for the trees and got a semi good repeatable tone with the Ace under some trees
I was surprised to dig up and see coins :shock:,this place has not given up many coins to me :cry: but just the same I had a few more :D
Not bad but these post date the ghost town :( but hey finders keepers I say :D

Well Im always on the lookout for critters near me and heard some hogs in the woods so walked over to see if I could see em,nope I didnt see them :shrug:
just lots of crashing and rustling in the woods.

After 2 1/2 hrs my water was gone and I said time to walk out to the truck,but on the way I noticed these critters :)
