Default Have you ever had a Monday!!!

I have a story to tell...!!!...We left and went out of town last Sunday after Church...it was late and I had to drive a few friends back to their homes and pick of kids and the hussle bussle of life and it was getting late, I mean pushing to get everything unpacked and everything done and ready for work for the next day....You all will never guess what happened!!!........The next morning we all got up and were getting ready for are usual Monday and my husband took out and then I noticed he came back in the house...He came up to me and had my detector in bag in his hand and said that is one tuff bag.......He said he just ran over my detector........I was like OH NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! My pride and joy!!!!.....
I was just sick.........The bag was wet from the frost and I believe it had been in the 30's that night.....Well I went on to work and was having a typical Monday as a few other things happened...I just got into a positive mode and thought I am not going to let this Monday get me down....When I got home I check my detector out...Turned right on and not bent anywhere...Seemed to be ok.....I was like Sure hope this thing will work again!!!! Finally got to take it out yesterday morning to give it a try and she worked like a charm......I went to one of my modern hunting places and found the usual clad and some jewelry and some poor soul lost his 24 hr coin, if some of you know what that is....as this place alot of drinking goes on....I will be saying a prayer for this person that they didn't just throw it down and are still sticking to their goal!!!....Then I ventured to another area that produced a few silver and wheats and I turned up 2 more silver and 4 wheats...Got a 52 and 57 Roosevelt and 4 wheats that will have to soak...The silver is in bad shape...I guess I am the only one brave enough to dig where the gravel was....It is producing alot of silver...
My husband said he thinks he just pushed it with his vehicle...
I have to say that DFX is one tough machine......And and especially glad it still works.... And to think I got everthing else in the house but my detector!!!!!!!! Never lay your detector on the ground behind a vehicle is my tip of the day!!!!!!

Can I get a lol!!!!!! I was nearly crying!!!!! lol!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are my finds

Pat
