Week Two - Tuesday

This posting will be short and sweet tonight.  It's 10pm and I am just beat. I have decided to stay in tomorrow, read my book, take a nap or two and stay off my feet.  This was our 11th day straight of 10 & 11 hour days and this over 60 body is screaming for mercy.  Clarence is still going out with the younger guys tomorrow as he just can't stand the idea of missing out on a day of detecting. 

Today, the farmer and his little blue tractor were fertilizing fields, usually the ones we were in.  We would move to another field and he would follow. We started going to the field he had just finished and that worked out better. The tractor guys always smile and wave but I'm sure they are muttering things under their breath.

Clarence did pretty well today with a 1676 Charles II three pence.  He also found a thimble, greenies, a buckle and a brooch with some gold guilding. I found maily buttons, a modern token, greenies and a 1948 half sovereign(copper). 

I will still write tomorrow about Clarence's day of detecting so check back tomorrow.  I am falling asleep as Isit here so it's time to call it a night.  Check in for more tomorrow..........

PS:  Yesterday's silver Roman is a denarius of Tiberius, 25-30AD.  Not too shabby!
