I'm at Ronny's house in Fl.

[John 'n' W.Va]

I am a grandpa. My daughter had twins two months early in Fl. I left WV. 2:30 AM Wednesday morning and haven't been able to get to the Internet till tonight. We are staying at the Ronald McDonald house in Orlando. Great place. Babies are doing great.
Did a little MD'ing. Got too hot Saturday and had to get out of the sun. I started getting dizzy. Man the depth and the ID are great in this Fl. sand. I almost forgot what it was like. I thought maybe I was dreaming about how good it was. It's real.

I have a set myself which are 19. It is a great experience raising twins. How they interact with each other and the world is fascinating. Your family has truly been blessed John.

So let's see. In 5 years when the twins are 5 that will be not 1, but 2 Ace 350s for their fifth birthday(s.) Then when twin number one finds a silver coin Grandpa will have to see that twin number two finds a similar treasure. Ice cream and pop after the hunts. Matching Garrett ball caps. Batteries. Gas to reach the park which should be about 15 bucks a gallon in 2012. You're in for some fun! I envy you!

A prayer for your family and God Bless!

Congratulations on the twins John. Ain't it great to detect on a beach again.
I know what you mean about the heat. I suffered the same fate on Saturday. I walked down to my favourite spot and detected for half an hour. started feeling really off, due to the heat, and not being a 100% to start with. Retreated back to air conditioning to recover. Haven't been hunting since.
Now that you have grand kids to visit, it would be most unfortunate if the Ace fell into your bag.

Congrats on the 2 grandchildren. We'll keep you in our prayers. Grandchildren are fun. My granddaughter is 9 and goes MDing with me when she visits. She is the official pin pointer with the Vibraprobe. She's grampy's treasure buddy.
