Default Got That Funny Feeling

Ever since i decided to go for it and get a detector ( next pay day ) i have amassed more places to hunt than i'll ever get to. i walk by them on my mail route and can't stop dreaming and getting excited. in a way it's frustrating because i have to say to myself " just calm down " This is why my wife is reluctant about this....i think i have gold fever. anybody else ever feel like this? the only thing it compares to is the unrequited crushes i had in junior high!

I know what you mean, but one of the great things about working for the PO is the amo0unt of people you meet. I was able to hunt places that no ever got the chance to just because of the PO affiliation. Yep call in them favors if you have customers who have a great piece of property you want to hunt ASK. I also found it much easier to detect in places that you might not exactly of supposed to have been in. No one want to bust the mailman
