Newbie from Illinois

[whitestar55]

Hi,
I'm Rick and I live in Illinois, transplanted from Indiana. Just got back into TH ing after a long absence. I had my first detector back in 1967. I just bought a new Tesoro Silver V Max. I travel in my job all over IN, IL, and MO so I get to hunt different areas often. "Anyone up for a hunt". I also get to visit the country of Columbia, South America. Someday I hope to get to hunt there. The picture of me with the bridge in the background is in the mountain village of Santa Fe, Columbia. The NEWEST church in that town is 200 years old, the oldest is 500. I doubt a detector has ever been there. The other pic is of me in Bogata. The last one is of me pursuing another of my passions......motorcycles.

Were you by chance on one of the Whitestar MTT's in Laos? Just curious, as some of the guys incorporate Whitestar into their screen name. Anyway, welcome and I hope you get to dig around Colombia.
