Howdy Nash!
Wow, and I ever glad to see you here! Welcome aboard amigo. You have been missed.
I was busily contacting lots and lots of folks yesterday by PM and email to let them know about the American Detectorist forum. I saw your name and figured you probably already heard from dozens of other west coasters, so I didn't send one to you. I apologize for that assumption because it evidently proved wrong. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea culpa!
But now that you're here, one more survivor arrives from the sinking ship and I think all the old gang are totally stoked that you've made it safely to harbor. (Don't ask me why I'm all nautical this morning, I just got up!) So dock up at the pier and take refuge from the storm. It hasn't come to these shores.
So have you found your first ring yet for the year? I have, and it was a beauty 10k gold.
There you have it. Defend your honor sir, and get those rings posted up over here before I run away with the title on ya! LOL!!!
Did I mention how delighted I am that you're here? I truly am amigo! And I mean that most sincerely!
Blessings,
M-Taliesin
