Default Do you know what's under your kid's feet?

I went back to the school yard that holds the fair each spring. There are 3 play areas that are filled with gravel. I spent most of the time in those play areas. I was amazed at the amount of trash that was below the gravel. Not just trash, but stuff that would slice or poke the little feet that play barefoot. I did come up with some goodies, though. The ring is a child's silver (925) ring. That makes 2 rings from there. All in all ...... a good day.

Thanks for looking
Chris

Hence " No shoes, No Shirt, No Service " Ha!

What amazes me is what you can find in the tot lots and school. You have to wonder if the little buggers ain't robbing there mother jewelry box or some thing!

Here in New Mexico, the Hispanic folks buy there little girls, 5 and up 18k gold ear rings, bracelets and rings.

Man! Kids will be kids!

Good Finds and Great Job of clearing out the dangerous objects
One school I detected last year I found an amazing amount of razor and exacto blades in the play areas .
