| I enjoy getting out and looking for
the areas that are so called "Worked Out".
Every time I hear that statement,
I cannot wait to get my detector and pull out the goodies that were missed. I
enjoy taking "newbies" out into the field and sharing my knowledge of
hunting, and enjoy the look in their face when they find that first old coin
or relic. Even I still get exited when I pull a piece of history out of the
ground, and wonder how it got there, and who dropped it.
I now have a new
hunting partner, my Wife, and I hope to have many pleasurable years hunting
with her. Whenever possible, I try and include my son when I am out hunting.
I cannot wait until Nathan is old enough to hunt!!!
