An Afternoon Treasure Hunt

The prize goes to the kid who finds the coolest thing. The winner is Hubby who doesn't mow over some huge metal thing having been buried for 30 plus years. The finale is a beautiful garden in the Spring.

And the winner is....Bubbles. Prez forfeited after injuring his ear with a Pickaxe. There was no puncturing of the skin, Aunt Tina, just a hard bump from the handle on a very cold ear. OUCH!

This was also an extension on our lesson of magnets. To simplify...the inner coil gives off a magnetic field attracting metallic objects. The outer coil then picks up on the magnetic field being given off by the object. If you're lucky.....TREASURE! Our coolest find was a rusty ol' vise. It was not exciting to find, but it was fortunate. That thing would have done some damage to the mower.
