A taste of silver.

Dean Wormer informed Delta Tau Chi pledge Kent Dorfman "Fat, drunk & stupid is no way go through life" has been ringing in my head the last few weeks. While a don't drink much with much being the operative word, fat and stupid are probably a pretty good fit. I can't fix stupid so in addition to starting the Paleo diet a couple of weeks ago I thought I needed to get out more and get a little exercise. I used to be a avid detectorist in the past and used the progression of Minelab's machines. I decided I would get back in the saddle and purchased a brand spanking new Equinox 800. After tinkering with it in my yard a bit and finding a copper memorial I loaded up Andy Sabich's coin program and headed to a local high school that I am quite sure has been bombarded over the years. BOY, I AM OUT OF SHAPE! After a little over an hour and a half I was starting to lock up. I did celebrate finding a wheatie early on, which was more than I was expecting. I had programmed the detector to ignore zinc pennies and was just looking for very good signals. Literally turning the corner to make my way back to the car I got a 27 signal. I had found a couple of clad dimes and was sure I was adding another and out pops a silver rosie. For the first run finding a wheatie and a rosie made my day. Well I gots to be going now and I'll see if I can stand up. I am going to be sore tomorrow. Cheers!

Nice Job I don't drink and I'm surely not overweight but I still do a 6-8 hour hunt I get a little sore myself.

Well Done on the Maiden Voyage with the Equinoxes 800. Nice hunts such as this will get you motivated to go more, the more you take the Equinoxes out, the more you are sure to find, and help you get in shape at the same time. A Win Win situation. Here's to HH, Good Health, and Continued Success.
