My name is clad_the_impaler and I am brand new to detectoring! I recently purchased a Teknetics Eurotek Pro and am eager to get out there and find my first clad!

I know... not very exciting, but you gotta start somewhere, right? I've already been to my first meeting at the Suncoast Research & Recovery Club in Clearwater, FL and met some great folks! My only regret is waiting so long to get into the addiction!

I'm a nurse by trade, work in a busy emergency department in St. Petersburg and am in Grad school for my Nurse Practitioner degree. 1 year to go!

I made one trip to the beach (it's been raining pretty much every day) and found a lone bottle cap. I'm sure there's more out there. :)

Anyhow, looking forward to meeting some of you fine folks and learning how to do things right!

Thanks for allowing me on the board.

Welcome to T-Net Clad!

And greetings from a fellow Florida (central) member. Don't fret the bottle cap,
the goodies will come with perseverance. Plus, we never get "snowed-in"!

Funny you should say that... I'm from Michigan! I'll take the rainy weather over the 20 degree snow covered ground any day of the week!
I'm looking forward to getting out there tomorrow, rain or shine, and get my clad on!

I am also open to finding other things. :)

Hello from Colorful Colorado and Welcome to TN. The way I look at it is you must find the bottle caps to find the gold. Just keep it up!

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the kind words. I think an important part of mding is not expecting to detect a pile of gold on the first outing. (Although it would be nice). I'm a realist and for now, will plod ever onward.

Looking forward to what Treasures I can find on the board!

Welcome aboard TNet! Beach hunting is a lot of fun!

Nurse Practitioner is a great title to have. I have a buddy that is one and he pretty much names his price.

Good Luck to ya and Happy Hunting!

Great blogsite! Thanks for writing up your finds.

I too saved my first bottle cap. Eventually, I plan to find things a bit more shiny, but I'll take the trash (to the bin) except for pieces that mean something.

Thanks for the info!

The great thing about patients is you don't need a metal detector to find them! I would like to get into a small practice, but time will tell. As long as I have time to be a detectorist, I'm a happy dude.

Thanks for the comments!

Ps: LOVED Captain Caaaaaaaaaaave- maaaaaaaaan!! when I was a kid.
