Basically loosing my Dad and Brother my hunting ceased and with the trout population declining my fishing ceased...Having recently retired...wow seems like a great way for ecercise, outdoors, new friends...Surely I could make more money working at Mickey D's...Although after 10 yrs my legs have weakened am looking forward to some quality time in the spring. Truthfully actually thought I could tell a gold ring when my detector went over it, boy was I wrong... If indeed my legs ever fail me, expect to see an old geezer in a wheel chair swinging,for that flash of a silver coin or gold ring can not be put into words...
