Hi everyone,
Today was a great day for me. I went hunting with my uncle JuJu and found my first piece of gold jewelry. It was chewed up by a lawn mower but my uncle helped me find most of the pieces. We were hunting a school sports field for a couple hours. My uncle helped me create a T-Net account so I could show off my find. The field is still full of targets so we will be going back. Thanks everyone for looking.

Congradulations on your first gold ! A feeling that you will never forget ! If I may a bit of advice ! Take time to listen to your wise old uncle JuJu and learn all you can from him. All of his knowledge and experience in this hobby can save you alot of trial and error work and will result in many more first finds like that nice gold you dug up today ! MaineRelic

<laughing> GOOD for you! Welcome to T-Net as well. Hope to see you more often online my friend. Get out there and find some more gold. Try to beat the lawnmower to it though perhaps.

~HAPPY HUNTING~
