Back At It

[DigDeep]

First gold in about 6 years of a detecting hiatus. Got it in a little wash Condor showed me  (I think) 8 years ago. 
The rains stirred it up a bit and I got one we left behind. 
 

Offroad racing is slowing down for me (getting old sucks) and I’ll be out swinging a lot more. I even got one of my little girls interested 😁

I’m in So Cal, anyone else in here around?

Nice bit of gold for your first lump on your return to detecting. 

Looking forward to hearing about your future adventures and finds.

There is nothing fun about getting old, I'm starting to feel it, I grunt now when I get up off the ground recovering a target, especially towards the end of the day 😛

Make sure she recovers the next one. It'll hook her for life. That's awesome she likes to go.....

I Reckon you should go hide that piece you found & let your girl "find" it. That will hook her for life like Purplehay69 says.

good on you

I hear you prunt, getting up and down several times digging even 1 target let alone several targets each time out can wear you out. I removed the short handle on my pick and installed a long shovel handle so I could stand up for most of digging a target until I need to kneel down to retrieve it. Much better on my legs and knees at the end of the day.

Glad to see the gold again after so many years I bet.

You may need to get your girl a better detector and let her help find some more. I don't thik that anyone here would say a word about you hiding a couple of nuggets for her to find.

Good luck on your next outing and stay safe out there.

Looks nice, welcome back!  I’m local- I like to go when I can - favorites include a couple hours northwest and also northeast of San Bernardino… What general areas do you frequent?

I live in Hemet at the moment. I go about anywhere within a few hours usually. Dale most off the time tho.
