Default Day 2 at the county fair.

Went back to the fair grounds and hit the biggest clad haul ever for me. We had a great day yesterday I thought but today topped that and then some.. I met up with pine3874 and another member named Matt (I forgot his board name). We started around 9:45 am and hit around the same spot we did yesterday at first. I hit just 4 quarters a few dimes and about 39 mems a Cleavland Browns pendent dog tag and a junk earring. Then took a break for a bit and counted what I had so far and get a snack and water. After that I went to hit the arena where they horse and bull riding happen. It is covered and the ground is like concrete, but I wanted to see what was there. Well Jackpot Quarter after Quarter.. I will dig them all day long!!!! Well after awhile the others decided to help me clear the arena. Well all and all I hit part of a junk bracelet 20 quarters 24 dimes and 34 mems (only dug the mems that were on the surface or just under it) and 1 eyeball nickle. Total for the day $9.58 And not much trash at all....



Not bad for a great day out!!

No not bad. especially when most fair grounds are hunted almost daily.
