The first day and the weather gods we being nice. It was partly cloudy, and fairly good breeze and NO rain. We detected for about in one of our favorite fields from last year. Unfortunately, it is in rough plow and was quite a challenge. You can only take short swings and are walking over deep plow ruts as much as a foot deep (or high).
Clarence and I each found a nice little hammered silver coin. I found a couple of buttons, bits of lead, a clay pipe stem (visual)and some common junk. Clarence found a nice little watch winder and an interesting little something still unidentified.
Tomorrow, we are starting earlier than normal with a pick up time of 7:30. We will probably hunt until 6pm. Lorna, our hostess, made us a fabuous dinner tonight of pasta, garlic bread and salad with avacado slices. Dessert was ice cream and fruit. You will see in this blog that food plays an important role. Expect to see it as a regular feature of our blog.
Time to get the suitcases off the bed so we can climb in. We still haven't quite caught up with our sleep yet. It sure is nice to be back here. More tomorrow...
