I would have done what you did for the first part. Once I changed locations on the property to an area completely away from the soccer field and she came after me,, Thats called harassment and I will not tolerate that. I have every right to be where I am just as they do playing their game. I would have told her its a public park, I moved when you asked me to (even tho she didnt ask you she ran you off) and now you are harassing ME while I am in a PUBLIC place. Back off or Im calling the police on you miss. I've had confrontations but not like that. Just two old guys, One either crazy as hell or just acting the part trying to scare me off the park. I persisted and kept swinging until they left me alone. I will "dig" ball fields up until the time I know there will be lots of matches going on. I will leave as soon as ANYONE shows up thats wearing a players uniform as that means many more are impending. I have stopped scanning my local highschool ball fields now for two reasons. First off the "lined" them a week ago and secondly its just to dang dry back there to find much of anything. I'll wait for snow melt and spring thaw as that area will get FULL sun and probably thaw out before any of the parks do or before the water warms up a bit. I'll scan it when there is LOTS of moisture in the ground. I know there are silver coins back there and I've never found a silver coin with dry conditions. Only in springtime when its almost muddy.
Would I go back to that park..> ABSOLUTELY < I would go between 6am and 9am or weekdays after work. Or just wait till spring thaw next year. Either way she was harassing you when you had every right to be there. You did what YOU Felt was right and no one here including myself can tell you that you were wrong. YOU were the one there, Not us. We are just giving our ideas of how we might have handled it. Most of us, when IN the situation would act differently than when we have time to think about "What would I do in this situation" Thing. Keep scanning and dont let it discourage you.
