Default Hi all y'all, i'm a new guy in this forum
I recently bought a metal detector from WalMart to take my grandsons on a treasure finding excursion. We found $2.61 in coins around a picnic table and had to quit because of weather. They are going crazy wanting to go out again.

Welcome from California, David.

You're hooked now. The grandkids will quit and you're stuck with us.
