Good start Bearharold, glad to see you got out! It was too hot here today. Vlad and I worked on doing concrete on the back of the house.

We have to head to Iowa on Sunday to pick up a transmission for the Jeep. I think we're staying at a campground on the way back. I hope to get some d'tectn' done. :yes:

Maybe I'll slip out early tomorrow morning to the park before everyone in town wakes up. There is a volleyball court not far from here.
 
Sounds good hope you have a nice trip . I have been hitting our big park some the last two weeks but its not producing much . They have a volleyball court in it too , but I have never seen anyone useing it , but I'm going to slip in there some morning and see what I find . I tried a small tot lot this morning in the same small park I was hunting in and there wasn't nothing in the tot lot only got one foil signal even dug it and checked it , only signal I got in the lot . Found most of my coins and pull tabs around the one and only shelter house they had in this park . Think I will start on the old fair grounds at the airport where my friend works , I have hunted it pretty hard but was passing everything up except sure coin signals , so now will go back and see what I been missing . lol Have fun ttyl

Nice going Bear, those wheats must have been a surprise! Not much going on around here, it looks like school has started, and the "winds" have started. It's been windy here for the past 3 days, but no rain since Aug 5th.
