    you know your a digaholic when..........

    From the land of the Bluenose.....you can tell your a digaholic (addicted to metal detecting) when;
    1. You put your machine together and take it for a drive and there is 3 feet of snow on the ground.
    2. It is in the same room that you sleep...all 7 of them.
    3. Flyers don't interest you unless there is a battery sale.
    4. Your detectors have names.
    5. Winter causes depression because you cannot swish or dig.
    6. You eat your Cheerios and they look like gold rings.
    7. You never leave home without a screwdriver for testing frost depth.
    8. Honey Dew lists take a backseat to surfing detecting forums.
    9. Cleaning your detectors becomes a daily ritual.
    10.You slip and call your wife Water or Land Baby <
    From the land of the Bluenose.....life is a beach at least till the tide comes in and the Bud is all gone. Swish and dig at the drop of a dime!

    11) You find driving with your hand on the gear shift and your elbow in the cup holder comfortable.

    12) You go to a nearby spot you have hit a million times before and the only metal left in the ground is iron and you haven't found anything the last 5 times there and you still spend 3 hours trying to find something that's non ferrous because you know in your bones that A SITE IS NEVER COMPLETELY HUNTED OUT.

    no matter how many times you drive past that house that has a circa 1883 sign above the door you start drooling because you just KNOW there are at least 6 Barbers waiting to be dug up.
