deathray Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I made an executive decision to ditch work yesterday and go detect....been fiending. My last trip a few weeks back, netted me a trip to the Doc, got poison oak worst of my life,lol. As I was heading out, here comes my son...turns out his forestry class was cancelled...COOL! So we hiked back to a camp we have been hitting on a buddys ranch. Started off warm and sunny, ended up cool and rainy. Not alot of good targets , but I got the quarter and my son got the Franc...his oldest coin so far. Best part was just getting out in nature and hiking with my boy.

deathray Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Au...I NEVER get it, because Im super careful lol. They where sticks, probably roots. Readon I got it, was it was a nighthunt...couldnt see the little ones , and got careless. But yes, the sticks will mess you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
californiagold Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Nice coins Ray. Sounds like you had a good day before all this weather hits. The poison oak looks like it is going to be a good batch this year. Now all we need is a few rattlesnakes to make it an interesting spring for detecting. I hope you find more coins again next time.

DDancer Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Sweet finds for sure regardless of the intent you both made out like bandits... however ditching work~ eh your boss loves you. ;) hehh As to poison Ivy or even oak the dried leaves and stems of winter dormant stuff still carry the oil that will get ya. Just harder to avoid in winter or during a dry season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
