    Thanks for the welcome Dan and all. I'm in the Merrimack Valley/Andover area. I really love hunting old roads, cart paths and woods, cellar holes, fields and yards of old homes, etc. I've never been a beach hunter, although I'm going to Florida in early January and may bring the detector along because I'm having withdrawals!
