Thanks for the kind birthday wishes.... My sweet wife took me to Myrtle Beach for three days of metal detecting. She spent her time Christmas shopping while I hunted three different beaches for about 5 hours each day. I found just over $3 in clad some junk earrings and one lone silver ring with "FAITH" inscribed on it. About that time, Faith is what I needed since I had not found much. Last day out as I was leaving the beach I did find a petrified sharks tooth about 1" long which was cool. Had a great birthday. Blessings to ya'al. Ralph
