Hello all...
Haven't been on much lately as my season has ended due to cold temps, snow, & frozen ground. Trying to get back into the routine of life without detecting. It was a good year and I'm looking forward to posting a summary of all my finds in the next week or so. With that in mind I headed to the jeweler today to pick up a sterling crucifix I had worked on... if you remember I posted about it here:

Came out nicely for the most part... pic below.
Anyway, as I put things together for my year end post I can't help but recall something Angel had said during our hunt in November. We were discussing forums and various members and Angel mentioned everyone has their niche. And it seems true - you got your folks going for silver, your tot lot hunters, cellar hole folks, beach hunters, etc. Everyone really seems to have a particular style of hunting or type of targets that they gravitate towards.
As I tally up my finds, it seems to me that I am lacking a niche. My totals for the year makle me realize I am quite the jack of all trades / master of none hunter. lol
I love finding silver coins. I love finding old copper coins. I love relics. I love jewelry. I love clad (and lots of it). I love modern tokens and kid's trinkets. I'm happy hunting the beach, tot lots, school yards, parks, woods, yards, wherever. I just plain old like digging stuff.
Anyway, no real point here... I just think it's interesting that I have yet to become any single sort of hunter. Maybe I will after a time?
