Hello everyone...

[sandwalker]

Hello to all,
I have been collecting money since I was a child. When I graduated last year from college, my family gave me a metal detector (Bounty Hunter 202) as a gift because I ONLY collect what I find. I never buy coins. So, they thought I would enjoy "hunting"!
It took me a couple of months to "bond" with it, but I eventually got the kinks worked out. Now I am hooked. (why didn't I get one sooner)
I live on the east coast of Florida. (Yes, home of the Space program/Shuttle). Now, I want to get into the water. LOL
There are alot of guys on the beaches here. I have met two of them that are very nice. The rest are rude. This forum seems like a nice place to meet others that spend their free time as I do... "fishing"
Have a great day,
Amy

You came to the right place to learn everything you wanted to know about metal detecting....but was afraid to ask.

Hello again...
I wake every morning (even in bad weather) feeling blessed that I live in paradise.

The beaches here have gone through alot of changes in the last 3 years with all the storms. The storms washed the old sand away and the cities, towns, and beach-front home owners replaced it with sand from 'God-knows' where. I heard one person say that the public beaches were replenished by sand dredged from the ocean several yards off shore. If that is true, what was sucked up with the sand? treasure? If so, I haven't found anything "old". LOL I wasn't MD'ing at that time. I have only been "fishing" for 9 months.

I tried to post pics of my finds, but the uploading-posting on this sight has me very confused. (still looking for 'maps' on how to post pics)
