Default Couple things

Well first off I think Hell froze over yesterday. My wife (separated a year now) went MD'in with me yesterday in a park. We were there about 45 mins just before dark. She filled my holes as we went. Found 5 pennies and a Race Car.
She said she wants to do Ghost towns with me so we'll see how it goes, was nice to have someone to talk to while MD'in.

Second, I'm on TV, as you know I'm a home inspector here in Reno and I'm on a TLC show called "My First Home" Check it out.

Third, I'm looking to sell a couple nuggets I have and wanted to set them in a necklace hanging thing. Any idea where to get these. The part that the nugget is secured to and the eye for a chain. I need 2 at the moment.
Any ideas?

Thanks as allways,

Rick

Let me get this straight, Mate. You and your wife have been seperated for a year but not only does she go metal detecting with you but she fills in your holes for you. She can't be leaving you so I've gotta ask, 'Why the heck would you even consider leaving her?' Rhetorical question but I'll understand if it's personal.

Cheers,

BDA

Rick congrats on your wife filling in holes...that is an accomplishment in it's self....I would look to see your show but being in Florida it's kinda hard//maybe when we visit Vegas....As for the necklaces..I would try a jewelry store or a repair shop..They will be able to help you to either find someone or do it them selves...we have a few here that do that type of work..so you probably have a few there...Take care.... Buster.....

Hey Rick good job on remaining friends, and the gold!

As to the necklace idea. I would look to a jewelery store that will make stuff. My wife had some old gold and stuff turned into a one of a kind necklace by a store. They really did a great job. Good luck with it, Beale.

Way to go Rick having the ex fill your holes. I have a wife that won't even go with me detecting .

Sounds like a nice idea for a necklace and like was said, a jeweler could probably help you. Show us the finished product!
