It’s the day after Thanksgiving. I am still reeling from yesterday’s over eating. It’s 27 degrees outside with a dusting of snow on the ground and I am seriously considering going out to dig some holes in the frozen ground (it rained all day yesterday).
The Money Maker Protocol (henceforth MMP) has netted me an old trolley token (1900-1933) and a 1913 D wheat. It occurred to me that I can apply this protocol while using one of the All Metal modes of the Deus. I tried hunting on All Metal mode (AMM) before but I didn’t have the protocol, I just sort of walked aimlessly and thus drove myself crazy and abandoned the AMM.
We’ll see.
The most significant development in my metal detecting life is that I have finally engaged the help of the German-farming side of the family in finding old homesites and such. Already, I was regaled with fables of a lost ghost town and the possibility of obtaining permission to hunt it.
Now I gotta go find my thermal underwear.
The Dirt Is Good To Me 
26 degrees and snow flurries huh…. If I were you I’d pull out the red wine instead of the thermals. Have fun.
