New to AMERICAN DETECTORIST and to Metal Detecting

[aWAREdetector]

Hi all,

A new member from Western Massachusetts. I just (20 mins ago) met a fellow member swinging the coil in a public park near me. Unfortunately I already forgot his name. Sorry....

I started swinging the coil in April of 2013 and immediately got hooked. Found a 1/10 oz Kruggerand in just the fourth whole I ever dug. I showed a picture to the fellow member I just met. Im sure i'll be hanging around in here quite a bit. Love the hobby and love learning about the hobby.

Happy Hunting to all

A Park????? Were you lost George? was there a hidden cellar hole there?
Well, if there WAS someone to meet from the forum.....George is definitely a good ambassador of the forum/hobby.....and sometimes even as a person:lol:

[RobW]

Also, you should touch base with Al...he's local and has Monday's avail for hunting. He and I use to go out a lot, but he no longer has weekends avail......I'm sure he'll be chiming in too
