Ok. Well the old 'puter took a poop. Seems someone spilled something in it. That's the second one I lost like that and no one knows anything about it. Luckily the local computer barn was able to save my files. I've been on line some, but mostly emails and work related. But hopefully I'll...
Ok. So I am a little late getting this posted, but.... well..... (Christmas, kids, turkeys, family, stupid computer, life) And I can't seem to get the pictures from my phone to my computer, so you will all have to wait for that too! (I hate technology most of the time) BUT - THANK YOU...
[attachment=DSCN2770.jpg] Well.... Josh was the one who bugged me about my first post if we were doing a Christmas exchange for 2013. Now it seems as if there was an odd number of people signed up and Josh was the last name in the hat. For those of you who know Josh, this should not come as...
Ran into a really great guy at the local Hysterical Society the other night. He's a geologist and archaeologist (or however you spell them). And he metal detects.
And the best part?!?! He really doesn't care much for bottles. But he knows where a lot are!

I know there are those couple guys from out west, but has anyone here had personal experience with ground penetrating radar?

Jim finally got me to go through all the OBMs he sent me. Here are the issues I need. Prefer to buy groups/sets/years as opposed to singles when I am missing runs.

Well, as some of you know, I work most days 6 to 10 or so and usually a little on Sunday afternoons. Something about a mortgage, a farm, 6 kids, salvaging old buildings and life. Seems most of my digging these days gets done through other's stories on these here blue pages.
