| Ken Nealy |
Ken Nealy will be having knee replacement surgery early in the morning. Keep him in your prayers. We have been hitting DO pretty hard for the last week or so. At least he got in a good hunt yesterday so as not to forget how to do detecting. He hopes to be back in about 6 weeks.

Had a great time at D.O. on Saturday with everyone...got the usual handful of clad, two wheaties (1940 & 1957), two rings (copper and the other is stamped 18K), and my first silver coin (finally!). It's a 1962 Roosevelt...found it about 20 feet from where Joe found his 1945 Merc. HH, Troy

| The need for permission….don‘t leave home without it! |
| Me and my ole hunting’ buddy Shane slipped off from work yesterday afternoon to do a little detecting in an area that I had researched and determined was worth swinging a coil over.

I was told by my father in law about an old 1950’s mill and mill village that was in our area and mentioned that we should see about hunting it sometime. That began my research for ownership starting with the GIS. I ... |
