Took my wife and kids to the beach and out of boredom she picked up my little turn on a go Tesoro Bandido Umax that I had bought for my kids years ago. 16 cents later she was hooked.

Not to be outdone, I picked up my old 1990 Tesoro Toltec 100 and pulled 60 plus cents out of the sand just to show her who's the boss of this metal detecting family!

Looks like an Ace 250 is in her future with a B'day and Christmas coming or maybe I can convince her she needs that Sovereign GT I have had my eyes on!!!

Yeah, that's the ticket!!!

Since she started on a Tesoro why not get her a Silver Umax or Cibola?

Thanks Guys. I may just let her do her own research and pick her own with a little guideance. To be truthful, I have heard so many good things about that little Ace 250 with the larger coil that I kind of wanted to try it myself. A little selfishness coming out in me!

Then again, that Sovereign GT keeps calling out to me also!

I own three Tesoros and they are really great too. I owned two different high end Whites and liked them too! Man, I don't think I ever met a detector I didn't like!!!!

Well I will think of something! She probably will try the water one day soon. Then I am stuck.

Rule #1 Never ever let the wife or girlfriend play with the MD.
Solution# Give her the shovel or scoop and let her dig your finds.

Couples who play together stay together. I just found a new girlfriend who wants to learn TH'ing and will be giving her first lesson at Daytona Beach on Sunday.
You know how beginners begin, usually find a gold ring, right off. ;)
