    Re: New To The Site

    Well Del, I'm in the middle of nowhere here in Mid-Michigan. I have several detectors (Minelab & Fisher), hunt land and water, and belong to the Michigan Treasure Hunters MD club.
    Divorced.....twice.
    No kids.
    And I live with my dog, barn cat, & a small herd of horses.

    I also ride horses & sport bikes, hunt with everything I can get my hands on, and dive locally.
    I make my living as a farrier (that's a horseshoer for those that don't know nuthin).

    Thanks Del...and all.
    The area that I live in was only settled in the mid 1830s, so finding that token in that condition was a thrill. I still can hardly believe that I found it in a park that everyone has pounded for years. It might have been the deepest coin find that I have ever dug (I almost gave up). It won me a FOTM award at that month's club meeting.

    Thanks again all for the warm welcome.

    Kenny, we'll have to get together sometime for a hunt. I'm about half way between you and Lansing.
