Does anybody set Goals for themselves? Me being pretty new still to MD'ing I like to set goals.
Goals for 2014:
-Dig a Century (100 coins) in one outing -Detect less public places and more "old" sites -Get in the water much more.. - Dig more foil for the "good stuff"
Most of all.. HAVE FUN!

I make up a top ten wish list, have for at least 3 or 4 years. Having found quite a bit of stuff this years wish list looks like I'm hoping for a lot, but if I get any one or two I'll be quite happy, and it's only a wish list, if I get none of them it will still be good.
1) cache or hoard (this is always #1 on the list) 2) complete shoe buckle 3) silver thimble 4) silver buckle 5) Victorian half dollar 6) spanish cob 7) any dollar sized silver coin, english crown, 8R, Dutch lion dollar etc. 8) Military belt plate (so far I only have a half of one) 9) Gold pocket watch (got a couple plated ones in '13 so getting closer) 10) Gold coin.
Didn't think I'd ever put gold coin on the list, but thinking that I won't find one is not helping.

Well, 50% is better than a wheelchair I guess. It'll get there, just gotta quit that break dancing for a while.
I did know there was a barrel factory out here but I haven't been able to track down it's exact coords, not a whole lot written about it. I have the name of an old-timer in the area, was going to sit down some day with a bottle of rum and a topo map and let him mark it up... Do you have any insight?
Cheers, DS
