Even with getting a little wet I made some cool find's and a first! Started out in an area of Stockton that I keep hitting every once in awhile.Hunted it for a little while and came out of there with a couple of button's and a 1898s barber dime ;DThen got a hold of Bob and we decided to go check out another area,this area has lot's of possability's as there was broken bottle's,porcalain and alot of ginger beer bottle's all over the place.Anyway while hunting this area I got a good signal and at a 1/4 inch dug up a IH,can't read the date yet.Need some serious cleaning.Then I got a cool looking brass wreath about the size of a half dollar,going to clean that to see if there is anything on it.Found some more button's and the I eyeballed what looked like a bottle sticking out of the ground.Pulled it up and looked at it for a minute and then realized I had just found my first insulator :oYea baby!!It is a a dark greenish blue color and look's almost like the shape of a bottle.Man this was an awesome day HH,Tom

Great finds, LT. But your keen excitement over the insulator has me worried.
