Default Wed Water Hunt Gold & Crotal Bell

Hi everyone!
rcat picked me up this morning headed to an old 1800's schoolhouse only to get there and find 2 raised ranches built on the site[then we headed to a fresh water lake a few coins & a few fishing lures but nothing more.then ron reaches into his pocket and says "oh no"his remote alarm to his car soaked.couldn't disengage the alarm to start the car finally, after an hour after taking the thing apart and drying it he got it to work.we headed to another freshwater lake only to be told by d.e.p or d.e.c.cop we couldn't go in water till after 6pm.so,we hit a old farm field.I pulled a old crotal bell and a flat button.then 6pm we were in the water.found this fake little skull earing then a nice 14kt hoop earing.rcat (ron) pulled a 925 ring and a 14kt religious medal about the size of a dime..the day ended better than it started for sure!
take care all!
dave
