Today's Treasure

[Tehamigo]

This evening while swingin' a country river park. Four kids on bicycles from an adjacent mobile home park circled me, with lots of curious questions. Not being in the mood for company I gave them the smart a## answer...'I'm from homeland security..etc." Not to give up they soon were helping me dig and collect... lots of eww's and ahhh's, and cool!! Long story short I made four new freinds, the oldest boy got the dimes, swearing he will soon save for a big 5 model m'detector. The other two boys split the penny's and flipped for a hot wheel car. A very precious 5 year old little girl with hair in her eyes brushed back with dirty hands in awe of the shiny pull tabs ran home to show her parents a whole hand full of them. My batteries drained the sun setting, I drove home with a smile on my face like I found a silver dollar. Treasure is where you find it.......

Very well done..that is an awesome story for sure..I sometimes don't want to talk to kids, but everyone needs to slow down a bit and be friendly.. you did great..it is always good to promote the hobby and make some new friends...Buster,..

Hey ND, so I take it your liking that 705... so far I am thrilled about the wet sands for me.. now after i ground balance again in the wet sands, I always end in shallow waters too, so I drop my sens down a bit when I go into the water, do you do the same as I have found coins in the water using that method.. hows about you?

Thats a great story! Sounds like you made a big impression on those kids! They probably won't ever forget that and just might become future MD'ers in the future!!!!!
