Metal Detecting - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Waterman · 06-28-2009, 10:34 AM

I have been metal detecting for 30 years, and enjoy it greatly! Went out early this morning and found a 10k gold ring with a small diamond. I have found literally thousands of dollars worth of stuff over the years, and would like to suggest this activity for others who are looking for something therapeudic to do. It's rewarding, and great exercise. If any of you want more info about this, P-M me and I'll be glad to answer questions....

I used to hunt old schools and old college grounds, and then got into Civil War relic hunting(mostly on farms), and now, I'm hunting in water where people gather to swim. Hunting this year hasn't been as productive, because fewer people are vacationing, or either they sold most of their gold........Last year was great!!
