.... but came up short. :dontknow: lol
Hey all! :groovy:
Hope everyone had a good Christmas!
The ground hasn't frozen just yet. So I figured I'd better get out while I had a chance. thumbsup01 Yesterday afternoon things finally started to slow down a little bit after the holidays. So I grabbed the E-Trac and headed for some baseball/ soccer fields near by. I was hoping to add one more piece of gold to the 2011 total. :drool:
I was digging the solid low tones and numbers. No gold :crying02: This is what I came up with instead :dontknow: :rolleyes: lol

But I did come up with $1.61 in clad............and a nice little .925 ring! <:

Hopefully the ground don't freeze too soon. I'm still going to try and find one more piece of the elusive gold before years end :drool:

Thanks for lookin' & HH everyone :beerbuddy:

My kind of treasure hunter! Keep digging the low signals and gold will come.

That's a nice silver ring, Tim! :yes:

Too bad about your luck with gold, if you keep digging those signals you're bound to find some more sooner or later! thumbsup01

Nice ring Tim!! Man I wish I could take advantage of this great weather. Keep swinging I think there is one more Gold waiting for you. Knowing you it will probably only be a silver pocket spill LOL. HH

Glad to see you squeaked in another hunt Tim. This December weather has been incredible.
Who would have though we were going to get 3 bonus weeks of detecting this year? :confused:

Sorry you didn't pick up a nice gold ring... but that is sure one fine looking 925. :drool:

Congrats.
