Four Coin Day - November Metal Detecting

One of the best days metal detecting in years.  Bob and I researched and found an old farm homestead dating back to the 1700's.  Dug four coins including a 1723 Hibernia halfpenny, a 1757 George II halfpenny, two large cents, various colonial buttons, a three ring mini-ball, and a nice crotel bell...

Bay Kayak Trip



Chris and I went kayaking on the Delaware Bay today - we worked our way up the St. Jones River for about a mile, then drifted back down stream.  It was a beautiful day, calm and very little wind.

The Catfish and the Snake

I had to post a picture of this on the Blog - Today Jenna and I were walking the Skippack Creek when we came across a water snake eating a small catfish - amazing sight to see nature at work - we watched for 5 - 10 minutes.  I was able to take a picture and shoot some video.

Blue Glass

I dug this nice blue Milk of Magnesia bottle today from my favorite site. It was really wedged in there good - I had to be careful not to break it while digging it out.
