Metal Detecting Day - 03-15-09

This morning it was decided that we would go detecting with Steve & Nadine. The phone call came around 8:30am to get up and meet them around 9:00am at a local Tim Hortons. We beat them there and discussed our plan of action. First, we decided to go and take some photo's of a local historical landmark that had caught fire on March 10th before they had a chance to tear it down.


We then decided where to go and hunt and the race was on. Who would find more, Steve & Nadine or myself and Bob?

The two teams split up and we started our search.

As Bob and I looked around we spotted holes that had been dug, plugs removed but not placed back into the holes. :o( Not a good sign, that means someone had been here before us. The plugs were frozen in place, so it had been in the previous days. What a disaster of divets. We hoped that if any local people came walking about we would not be blamed for the destruction because we are always very careful to try and cut our plugs as clean as possible and when we are done with the holes to place them back into the ground.


We began our search.



We came up with a lot of pennies approx. 3 inches down and a lot of surface pop tabs.
Steve & Nadine started their search.
Their total was $3.68 and also found bottle caps, pull tabs, a Mascarra Brush & bent fork along with a cool little cross charm.


Looking forward to our next hunt with them sometime!! :o)
