It's in the mail!!!

Asked the mrs for a md for my birthday (June). She said "you might as well just go ahead and order it." So I did. When I told her I did she said she meant when my birthday came. I told her that's not what she said. FedEx tracking says it will be here today. We all know what that means, it will be here tomorrow. Either way the good news is she's out of town for the weekend!!!! I can see it now, "yeah it came with the box open like that....."

You'll end up buying another because SHE will be using it too much! TTC

So are you sitting on your porch waiting for the FedEx Man? (With your laptop of course.)

***UPDATE***

Got it Saturday afternoon and took it right out. Cold and windy so didn't keep the kids out long but we did manage to find some "treasure". The bottom of a pop can and some other piece of scrap aluminum. Had a great time with my kids and they are now hooked also so it was a win win as far as I'm concerned.

benjamingunn, 1st off, welcome to T-Net and good luck with that new detector.

You will find the vast majority of people here very friendly and helpful, then there's me :laughing7:

Now... This is my version of Helpful Hints From Heloise :tongue3:

Try to get as many of the details into the first draft of your thread, like the kids are home with me. :tongue3: Had I seen that the first time around I would have told you not to worry about the open box deal. Just tell the Mrs., the kids opened it by accident. :laughing7:

Looking forward to your finds, story, and pictures, so I can critique them :tongue3:

I'm glad you got to go out and break it in. Of course it would be nice if every outting produced nothing but keepers. But reality is junk is part of the game. Thankfully it's not all trash and that first coin and ring and just plain cool item will make your, and your kids, day.
