I know I have not been on in a long while. My back pain since Iraq has gotten severe, and according to the VA doctor I saw a few days ago, I must have surgery. It is going to end my military carreer.
Well, I got my daughter to come with me to do the stooping and digging, and we hit the tot lots. While we were there, one of my daughters schoolmates brought out a dinky little detector she got for a Christmas present. I was teaching her how to swing the coil, set the sensitivity, etc, when my White's Coinmaster gave a good, solid ring.
I swept my foot over the gravel, and there was a little ring with a dangly cross. I figured it was a bit of kiddy junk jewellry. I looked inside, and there it was 925 STERLING!
So for all my bad luck, things are finally shaping up. It was also nice to meet another detectorist in this tiny town, even if she was only 10. I told her that if I cannot detect after my surgery, I will give her my Harbor Freight, since it is a REAL detector.
(Sorry no pics, some jerk stole my digital camera.)
