Default Rainy day

I took a long lunch today and hit a park not to far from my house. Has 2 playgrounds, and b-ball court and a baseball field. I started by hitting the tot lot, not much going on there so I wandered toward the pond and over by the trees I start seeing a bunch of busted glass. Then I got a signal in the middle of the glass. I dug a cap with the top of the bottle still attached. I found another bottle top with cap and then decided to get out of the trash, I was getting signals left and right, all ending up being trash. There must have been a house there a while ago, because the glass and trash was pretty old.

I wandered back on to the tot lot, and picked up all the coins, then on to the benches by the b-ball court. Thats when the rain came back. The ground was tuff here, so maybe the rain will do it some good. Still have to get back and check the baseball field.

The ground is tough here, too. Funny how it doesn't keep us from hunting! Thanks for including pics! What's the item in the first pic, bottom row that looks like some sort of jewelry?

Well at least you didn't leave much behind, based on the amount of trash you dug. Keep recovering targets like that and the REAL gold will show up eventually. Until then, at least you are getting battery money. Congratulations!!
