    My Two Blankedy BLANK-BLANK-BLANK SEs!!!

    Today I stopped at a really old house here, in Trinidad; knocking on the door, humbly begging permission to search their yard with my trusty SE. Already receiving no less than 3 "NO!s" this morning, I was expecting yet another. The kind lady and her child answered; affirming "Yes!" Quickly, I...

    The 18 Inch Excelerator Coil performed flawlessly ---

    Sunday April 27, 2008 Well, I finally stopped at a farm I've passed up for the last year or more! It's only about 15 to 20 acres but is in an ideal location. At least I thought so. Lying beside the railroad tracks leaving Trinidad, the little field was just plowed up a week or so ago. I got...

    "P'ed as in Pig Headed!"

    Monday July 23, 2007 My wife tells me I'm Pig-Headed all the time; guess she's right. For the last 4 hunts of the new week I've concentrated on the same block area I've hunted off and on for months now. Sometimes I think one must realize when it's time to move on. Here's my meager take using...

    "SECRETS ARE FOR KEEPING!!!"

    Monday July 09, 2007 "SECRETS ARE FOR KEEPING!!" but the secrets out!!! I should have learned a lesson from PiggMan and "not" posted my hunting site until "after" I finished working it. :( I got up early this morning but knowing the Trinidad Rodeo and Fair Grounds normally doesn't open until...

    Raining Rodeo Nickels and Durango silver dollars ---

    Saturday July 7, 2007 The outlaw fired, hitting the Marshall in his chest. The 45 bullet twanged, ricocheting, slinging bits of a silver star; raising whiffs of dust on Durango's empty street --- With reports of 200 & 300 plus coin days, I realize my paltry sum of 107 coins in 5 hours won't...

    They said there was silver beneath the wheat ---

    Thursday July 5, 2007 They said there was silver hidden beneath the wheat. I trusted them to know; treading lightly between the rows --- An old church in Cokedale, CO gave up a few secrets today. After reading buddy Captain SE's report yesterday I was determined to find at least some silver...

    Loot for Monday, July 2, 2007

    Monday July 2, 2007 Today I awoke at 3:30am with no clue as to where I wanted to go MD'ing. Yesterday (Sunday), being the 2nd cop day of the week (Monday was first) I felt a little leery-weary about hunting anywhere in Trinidad. So, I loaded up and drove the 20 miles south to Raton, NM! I hit...

    "5 Nuts, a bear, a Cop & Goning Crazie!"

    Have you ever had one of those days? I told my wife, seeing that brown bear yesterday near our property was a bad omen. The cows definitely thought so too, corralled around their newborns. I got up this morning at 4:am to go MD'ing! I figured it was a good way to begin July. There's a...

    Bigg Fisher Dogg F-75 only had a loose tooth! ---

    Well Gang, today began early! I was up at 3:30am on go and pointing! I took my time but hurried to Raton, NM to check out a tot lot at a local school. I'd passed it by yesterday too tired to stop. I grabbed Bigg Fisher Dogg F-75 to see if he was ready to hunt. Immediately, I began having the...

    Bigg Fisher Dogg F-75 refused to bark ---

    Well today began a bummer! I'd decided last night, trying to sleep that I'd go back to Raton, NM and visit a park I'd passed a month or two ago. Funny thing, I knew there was an electical power plant in Raton. I just didn't know it shared the same humongous block with the park! Not only that...

    Move Over Miss SE! Big Fisher Dog F-75's in town!!!

    Well, being a little disgusted with the entire MD'ing experience I was ready to sell all my equipment a couple of weeks ago. I guess you could say I had a change of heart realizing how much I really like doing this "digging" thing! Anyway, I've added another member to my metal detecting family...

    New Fisher F75 arrived today! My 1st Impression ---

    I'd ordered the new Fisher last week and it arrived today. No surprises really other than the battery compartment. Although it uses 4 AA batteries, Fisher opted to creat a potential problem IMO with the way the batteries are inserted and held in place precariously perched atop 4 very flimsy...

    My first Tesoro and I named him Cortes ---

    Hello Guys & Gals! Last week I found this used Tesoro being advertised in Classifieds and bought it as a backup for my SE. I initially wanted the TeJon but found the used prices to be a little bit too high, approaching retail. Anyway, I've had a chance now to put a couple of hunts under my belt...

    Dupont Bedliner and Coils ---

    I've got too many coils which means too many plastic protective covers for my SE. Needless to say, if you use these things daily as I do it's a constant struggle to keep the coil covers clean on the inside. And, although I've never done it I've read where many people have cracked the covers...

    1855 French DIX-1909?-1013S? Wheat in Same Hole!!!

    Guys & Gals! Today started out a bummer! Pioneer, a local methane gas company came by this morning consulting with me to place a well on my property. No, it's not me whom owns mineral rights so I'm pissed! Can't fight them. Anyway, I didn't get a chance to MD until after 1PM and wasn't really...
