	4th time..getting better! « on: April 02, 2009, 08:13:16 pm »

Just had to go out for a couple hours after work, only 38 degrees, but threw on an extra sweatshirt! Hit the elementary school again, different side, and tried to hone my skills. I didn't dig as much trash this time, and got some coins.(A few were just laying on the top) Nothing exciting, all modern stuff. Had a little girl help dig for awhile and ask tons of questions, but she went home after we found a penny.
Have been studying maps from the 20's and 30's and hope to hit a few promising spots near-by this weekend. I live close to the Mississipi River and some of the backwater areas, lot's of history around me!I'm thinking the sweeping will go better now than after the weeds and stuff get growing this summer.
Posting a pic of my finds tonight. Bye for now! Detecting

PS..anyone else just get one knee dirty each time out?

Not bad finds!
The big thing is you were able to get out, and that's half the fun. We finally had a nice Saturday here, but I had commitments out of town and didn't get the chance.

If you haven't tried it yet, check out historicaerials.com and see if they have the old aerial views for your area. It's a great tool (when the site's working right) to find those hidden hotpots like picnic groves, etc.. that may now be overgrown.

If you have any questions using it, send me a pm and I'll be glad to walk you through it.

Have fun!
Mike

PS. My left knee is always dirty when I'm done. I might break down and buy one knee pad one of these days.
