It's Spring in England. Cold, rain, wind, mud...just like Oregon. Clarence and I had just hiked over to the same field where he found a silver thimble a couple of years ago when my detector decided it didn't like the cold and wet and just quit working. We got to walk all the way back to the van and get the backup detector. The day went downhill after that. The backup detector eventually did the same thing. This time Mindy had taken the van back to the house to start the beef stew we were having for dinner tonight. I walked across the road to one of the barns to get out of the rain and wind and wait for the van to return in a couple of hours. Had a nice chat with the head worker for the farm and he even knew where Oregon was. The land owner and his workers have always been very nice to all of us but I'm sure they are glad when we are gone so they don't have to keep an eye out for us when they are working in the fields. Clarence and I both called it a day after lunch and came home to nap and do some laundry. It was a nice break and the nap was wonderful. Obviously, there were no great finds made today by us. One of the other guys got a hammie but it was slim pickings today.
Pedometer stats:7582 steps = 3.35miles It was only a half day today.
