Unhappy Raining in MD today.

Woke up this morning to a wet and soggy yard. We had heavy thunderstorms sweep through here late last night. It looks like there will not be any hunting today.
It was a beautiful day yesterday, but as my luck would have it , there were errands to run, and chores to get done. I was able to pull the M6 out for about an hour and scan the back yard one more time. Now that I am getting to know the machine better, I pulled out two more pennies . One of them a wheat, 1957 D and in really nice shape too. It was about 7 inches down. I know I went over that same spot before and passed it right by.
That was it for hunting, ran out of time. It was then off to get a new gas grill and a tank and food and etc, etc. Bring everything home , and now time to put the grill together. YIPPEE!!!!! 3.5 hours later and dark out, the grill is together!
AHHH, time to sip some nice cold sake and throw some ahi tuna steaks on the grill, wooohooo!!!
Sorry for the long ramble, have not had my coffee as of yet!

Bryan..sometimes things like that happen..I know for sure...Always things that need to be done...As for the rain...That might help out a little with the conductivity of coins and earth if you can get out there still...Also congrats on the wheat...even if you go over that spot again, you still might find more stuff..I have been over my yard a bunch of times and still pull out wheats...Have not pulled out any silver in my yard yet, but if the wheats are there, then silver should be too....Keep at it...silver is calling your name..Good deal on the new grill..Buster...

Hey Bryan sounds like a busy Sat. for sure. I like the sound of your dinner. You really can't get good tuna around here.

Hey you found a nice wheat that is cool, good hunting, Beale.

Buster, I wish I could hear the silver calling my name. It must be calling the wrong number, if you are able to hear it calling me, all the way down in Fla!!
