Most everyone knows me here...I've been a bit quiet this "season"....Which god knows is NOT like me!....Had a bout with Lyme Disease and torn knee cartilidge, and a new baby...so not having time, and not being able...I haven't hunted much this whole year.:mad: Well, now that I'm back a...

I spoke with Senator Don Humason and one of his chief of staff last night at a fundraiser and got a bit of an update. I cannot stress how bad this legislation is for our hobby. This legislation goes beyond state beaches...it extends all the way to your local parks. The state is doing this for...

I am personal friends with State Senator Don Humason in MA. He has been to see Al and my displays of our finds at the local "museum/library" and he always asks about my latests finds when I see him. I called him directly today to discuss the proposed ban of metal detecting on DCR beaches. He...

Tim and I were able to escape parenthood for a few hours on Saturday. We headed to the 1700s farm I've been hitting since we knew we at least had permission to hunt anytime. We hit a lower field, then worked our way back through the main field to where another old home once stood. Pickings were...

First off, it's good to see that everyone is getting out and finding stuff and posting! And now my story.... My wife goes to church every Sunday...religiously...:lol:. That is my time that I go out and detect and have my own religious experiences, and I am sure that I am not alone in this...

Yes, yes I am technologically challenged...you've seen my pics..it's a wonder I can even turn on a detector :lol: I am trying to "update" my signature.... So where am I going wrong? I go to My Profile Then About me Customize profile...but I can't change anything

I am always curious on what everyone does with what they find???? I believe most of us keep them as our trophies. Sometimes we display them, or they just disappear into a box..... And some people sell their finds when and if they can. What do you do? Personally, I don't sell anything, and I...

Is there still an American Detectorist Store? I can't seem to find the link if there is?

For those who do not subscribe to Minelab's emails, or read them, as I usually just junk them myself. One caught my eye today and had to check it out. Who says metal detecting isn't cool, and get you hot babes......apparently Minelab is making it cool.... Even if you are not a minelab...

I noticed that the "time stamps" for postings is way off. Is the server in Europe or something and that affect the time it states things were posted on the forum?

40 degree weather last weekend and I was foaming at the mouth to get out. I sent Tim a text message that I was leaving out early to go detecting and he was welcome to join me. He said he was coming whether his wife liked it or not...I think he's getting divorced now....:lol: There was still...

My wife bought me a Kindle for X-mas, since I refuse to have a computer at home. I figured they have an app for everything. so I searched for a metal detecting game. They actually had one. It cost 99cents. I guess it is hard to really figure how to make what we do a game for computers. I know...
