Howdy Folks!
It has certainly been awhile since I've posted on this forum because I've been as busy as a one-legged man at a Riverdance audition. Between being a fugitive recovery agent, process server and holding down a day job in the bargain while building my own business, I haven't enjoyed much free time for metal detecting.
Now, as things evolve, I aim to post more and hunt more frequently in the bargain. 2012 was about the poorest year I've had since I took up metal detecting. My aim is to change my fortunes in 2013!
That being said, I just got done serving papers on some folks who were renting a house nearby, but weren't bothering to pay rent or any other such formalities. Before going over there, I did some research and learned the man of the house had a wonderland of felony convictions on his record. To make a long story short, I made 3 attempts, and evidently bothered them enough to move out of the house. Well, the woman who owns the house was real grateful that I'd been so efficient like and granted me permission to hunt the grounds. The house was built in the 50s, and I'm hoping to score some silver from that location.
Also among my plans is to perform an experiment. Another fugitive recovery agent in Arizona invited me down to hunt meteorites near Tucson, and I figure to make the trip through New Mexico to Arizona and back again without spending any money out of pocket. I hope to pay as I go, using coins and jewelry finds to pay for my gas and food. I'd like to think I can make the trip and come out money ahead by the time I return to Colorado.
Since 2013 started, I have only hunted a couple of times. I was sick with the flu for the first two weeks of January, then it got horrific cold the following week. I got out once, scored gold and silver in addition to a plethora of clad. On another hunt, I found a real nice little silver bracelet. I'll post about those a bit later.
For now, however, I just wanted to drop by and let folks know I'm still alive!
Blessings,
