My .925 hot streak moves into its second week lol. Added 17 grams yesterday along with $9.00 in clad. Beaches are getting very busy and I am optimistic for some gold. The find of the week however, was taking my wife along and setting her up with the AT Pro. She went once before but got bored quickly so I had pretty low expectations lol. Working the volleyball nets I hit the ring (with Latin sayings inscribed) 15 feet from her....why couldn't that be in her path? 2 minutes later she pops the small .925 earring and catches the hunting fever and it's on. 5 hours and one huge silver earring with bling later (for me), we are having lunch and I pop the question...so, do you want to go tomorrow? Sure, sounds like fun.

And so that's how it's begins. Very cool to have the wife interested in one of my hobbies. Can't convince her to take up mountain biking or cruise the canyons in the ZO6 Vette but at least we can spend some quality time at the beach and find her some bling. Hmmmm.....any suggestions on how I convince her we need a CTX3030?

Good Luck!

Sal

Two carrots...no, not from the salad bar, but in a nice gold setting will bring you a 3030!
My carrot and a third was a bit short of the two carrot mark but it did bring me an ATX!
