    Hello everyone,
    For the past 2 weekends I haven't been able to metal detect due to a really bad lower back pain. I felt much better yesterday and was able to go out and carefully detect for about 3 hours.

    I won't be metal detecting next weekend because my wife and I are heading to a 3-day getaway to Puerto Rico. Our 4th trip this year :joyful::kiss:

    Let me first tell you an unfortunate and disappointing story. I detected my third ever thimble. I noticed that it had compacted dirt inside, so I decided to tap it against my hand digger. As a result, the thimble which was thin and fragile crumbled into like 8 pieces :confused: - It was totally destroyed :( I won't ever do that again!

    Here are my finds
