    Went South for a week

    The wife and I decided last week to drive to Savannah and work our way back up through South Carolina along the coast.We didn't have a plan at all and just winged it the whole way which turned out to be a great way to do it.I didn't get that much detecting in but managed a nice little 14k ring...

    Went North this last weekend :detecting:

    Went up North to Door Co. Wisconsin last weekend to check up on the Mother-in-laws house and get a little hunting in.The first pic shows the closest town on the Green Bay side of the pennisula which is frozen a couple of miles out so I didn't do any lake hunting :lol:. [attachment 21912...

    Odds and ends from last summer :cam:

    It being the dead of winter I thought some of you might find these interesting,though not silver and gold they are a testament to the age of the spot I was hunting. The first pictures are of brass manufacturer tags that were on wooden rowboats that were rented for summer fun. The third is a...

    My totals for 2005 :cam:

    2005 was only my second full year of detecting and I think I'll be hard pressed to do better but I'll try. I spent most of my time water hunting but did do some land hunting when the chance came. I appreciate all the help and advice I've received on this forum but most of all enjoyed the chance...

    Need a little advice

    I'm taking a couple of weeks off before deciding what to do with the rest of my life but staying in town doesn't seem to be working out so well. My former partner and best friend is already in gear to start another business of some sort but after the last couple of months I need a break before...

    After 16 years we closed the doors for good today :yo:

    Just after getting back from the big get together in the Big MO last month we hit the wall at my injection molding business and our fate was sealed.It's been a tough 5 weeks getting rid of equipment and winding down the operation but it's over now.Some people might get depressed in this sort of...

    Finds from last weekend (pics)

    After 2 days of 50 degree weather I was finally able to break off some sheets of ice and get in the lake late Sunday morning. Dave didn't make it Sunday and I was able to find the nice 18k wedding band on the right before calling it a day. Monday afternoon I met Dave there to take advantage of...

    Finds from last Monday (pics)

    Dave and I braved the cold water temps again Monday and had some success. I used to call this place "The Spot" when I first started detecting there this summer but we now refer to it as the Enigma because of all the weird things that happen while you're there. This is just an example,Dave and I...
