Thought I'd piggy-back my intro and save some space...
Greetings from Idaho! After spending most of the winter re-re-reading post after post, I'm anxious for a patch or 2 of thawed ground and a dry day to apply some of the knowledge I've gleaned from this excellent site.
Thanks to all the MD pioneers for sharing.

Thanks guys! We got out today for awhile at a local park. It was 70 degrees today(pretty good for this time of year here) Too much ground to cover in a short time. We found a few pennies and a few dimes. We have found quite a few things since Christmas. The best of the finds were 5 wheats 1 gold class ring and 1 junk ring. He found the rings :clapping:. We had to give the gold one back crying01.

That's not where my mother in law lost hers |:cheering:
Not sure if I can make it before planting time. It would be nice digging it they have disked the field and maybe if crops are up but not too high. Early spring!
Spend a lot of quality time with son, they grow up last. I used to take my son and do about anything he wanted to do. In his late teens he got gasoline and perfume in his nose and started driving and chasing girls!! :loveit:. Now I just see him when he wants something! |:cheering:
