Re: OKIE's
I'm from Oklahoma and my family first came there in the 1830's or so. We started out in the Indian nations and my great-grandfather actually went before Judge Parker and didn't get hung. He later got shot and killed by the law, while he himself was the law. Only in Oklahoma. My first real detector that I still have is a White's Coinmaster Classic 1. I set a goal for myself that I would find enough change each day to buy a cup of coffee and a copy of the Daily Gaylord and I hit that more often than not. Now that I'm rich (haha) I saved up and bought a DFX Spectrum E-Series. I'd like to use it a lot more, but the company I work for apparently came up with a sense of humor one day and sent me right here to Summit County, Colorado, where we have 9 months of winter and 3 months of late fall, and snow that is real deep on a tall giraffe right now. Still, here's a tip if you all ever get to an area with a lot of snow that requires regular snow removal. In the large parking lots for the malls or big stores, they generally push the snow off to the edge of that parking lot. The towns generally have an area where the dump the snow that they grade off the streets. In the spring, if it comes, when this melts down, detect there. Everything that was ever dropped by all those tourists got graded up and dumped there. Loose change, jewelry, watches, keys, it's right there. And still pull tabs now and then. You all ever get up here come see me.
I swing a Whites MXT by the way.
