Welcome to the forum. I'm kind of in the same boat as you. New to MD'ing (3 months or so) and no one around who wants to go hunt. Not even my wife, she thinks I'm nuts. I live nearBelair, Maryland and it is about 1-1/2 hrs from Philly? I have some nice sites very close and i'm into prospecting as well. I have pans and a new sluice I'm dying to try out asap! So if you're interested holler.

Yeah my grlfriend won't go anywhere with me if I have the MD in the car. She thinks its pretty ridiculous. Anyway, I'd be interested to see what kind fo stuff you find down in Maryland. I've been looking mainly north of Philadelphia and in Philadelphia.

Hey Folks!!

I'm also in Southeast (Springfield,Delco) I'm relatively new to MD'ing but dug bottles for 10 years. I haven't been able to get out much lately due to caring for my terminally ill wife of 31 years. 1 mile to the east we have a Swedish cabin circa. 1650 and 1 mile to the west,The Thomas Massey House circa. 1696 with all manner of history in between. My town was settled in 1682. Feel free to email me at [email protected] anytime and we can chat and perhaps I can carve out a couple of hours to hunt.

God Bless,

HI All,

Been lurking for a bit and this is my first post. I live in Lansdowne, Delaware County,,actually about 5 minutes from the Swedish cabin. My son got a metal detector a few months ago and we've been out on mini trips looking for stuff. So far we've found about a million pull tabs along with lots of scraps and a total of 12 cents.

We;re looking for a club to join or just others to get out with and find some "stuff". If interested, let us know.

thanks,

Al

Hey folks, I am brand new to MDing as well, live in Telford, PA (Montgomery County on the edge of Bucks). I would be interested in joining in a hunt or two. I just started playing around in my back yard, so lets say very inexperienced. Email me.

Thanks
Ron

It looks like a bunch of us live in the southeast PA/Phil area. Why don't we organize our own MD club. I live out in the Collegeville/Skippack area. Been there for 3 years. I used to live in NJ and belonged to a club out there. We did quite a few hunts on farms near the Monmouth battle field as well as semiannual beach hunts. I found that the most enjoyment I had was when several of us got together. I have hunted several parks in NJ and am looking for PA buddies to hunt with. If anyone has an interest please contact me.

What do you think about trying to organize an early spring MD adventure. My son and I have been out a few times, but we really don't have any idea of what we're doing. It would be nice to see how it's really done. If you're interested, let us know.

My hubby and I just got our ACE 250 so we are newbies too. Seems that most of us here are. We are in Wallingford so we are close to many in this group. What we need is an experienced MDer to offer to take us to a good spot and show us the ropes. ( Anyone interested????) I'm having fun digging up the yard and a local playground so far but I sure would like to learn to dig coins without digging a plug. Add me to the list if a group gets together.

I'm in Springfield Delco. and I detect and dig bottles. I was involved with the Swedish Cabin for years. I'm currently digging a fairly productive spot in Chester(my hometown). Interested in meeting others with same interests.

Peace,

I'm brand new to this board as well and live in Philadelphia. I'd love to join whatever group gets put together. Sometimes I stand in center city on my way home from work and wonder about all the years of history here to be found and all the million miles of concrete over top of it all.

Let me know if anyone has gotten together at all and when the next time you're all going out...
