Time to put a way my toys

[clondike clad]

Like it or not it is COLD out side and It is time to put away my toys.
I will be ready to try for 1000 pre 1957 coins in 2008
COLD is to much for my old bones.
Time to read old maps, newpaper,library and talk to the old folks like me.
MERRY XMAS AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR RO ALL

Cold here as well. Had two days of snow and now rain is melting it away. But not to worry. We have more snow on the way!
Gives me time to research some new areas to MD in.

The season is just started for me and will last till the temps approach upper 80s - 90. California weather - allows hunting between any rains and don't get to much frozen ground for extended periods in my area. Guess I do the opposite here...

Ground never freezes here(Northern Louisiana). We will get a few days of really cold nasty weather between now and February but it passes and warms back up.
But the summers here with the high humidity is not nice.
Im gonna order the book, "Taking a Closer Look at Metal Detector Discrimination." When we hit some of those nasty cold days,I will grab some red oak firewood,build a good fire in the fire place and read that book this winter.
Merry Christmas,
John

Yeah, here in Bama we just get started too, from now until May. In May it starts to warm up enough that the snakes become a problem again and the poison ivy and ticks will drive you out of the woods as well. I hunted through last summer and got 5 cases of Poison Ivy. Won't be doing that again.

I need dynomite to get in to this ground plus it is so cold and with all the ICE.
I just can't do it ......DFX you are one coin hunting man.

 

[DFX-Gregg]

I work overnights do not wear a coat...one of the guys said to me..."how the hell do you not wear a coat"? I said this is nothing go out metal detecting for 3 hours and dig holes in this weather"! He just gave me a weird look!

Here is what I am counting on....the snow/ice melting...right now rain is pouring down...if it does freeze up tomorrow... Next week's forecast has 2 days in upper 30's! I looked at my log from last year and it seems I should get a few good shots in before year ends.... January here last year was a dream...30's doubt that will happen again this year...
