Me too. For the first time in my life I can do what I want & the wife & I are heading to southern Alabama very near the Gulf coast in an RV. Any tips on places to detect would be greatly appreciated.

Sandhill Cranes.

So is that why they call the senior citizens here that go south for the winter snow birds? White hair? Hate the cold? Didn't know a snow bird was a real bird...lol.

And this is snow...

I only see snowbirds (Junco) in the winter. But I love to detect in the fall so I have the a month or so off great hunting.

Is that a Grand National? Even if you lie, please tell me you were putting it to bed...
On second look, it appears to just be a Chevy....
