HI EVERYONE,

YESTERDAY I TOOK THE XTERRA 70 TO SEE WHAT I MIGHT FIND AT A BEACH & CAME HOME WITH,
6X5CENTS; 2X10CENTS ; 1X $1 , 3 SINKERS & A VERY DIRTY SILVER,MAN'S RING WHICH i HAVE CLEANED UP.

DECIDED TO GO FOR A DETECT AGAIN TODAY BUT APART FROM THE USUAL JUNK & 2 MORE SINKERS I DUG
ANOTHER RING WHICH HAD MY HEART TICKING OVERTIME!! ALL I COULD SEE WAS THIS LARGE DIAMOND!
BUT WHEN I CLEANED IT UP IT IS NOT A DIAMOND. :P SOB!!!ANYWAY IT SURE GAVE ME A THRILL FOR A
SHORT TIME!!!!

WISH THERE WERE MORE AREAS TO DETECT HERE. MOST OF THE OLD BEACHES HAVE BEEN GIVEN A
COMPLETE CHANGE WHERE THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN A BIG CLEANUP & CHANGED DRAMATICALLY WITH LAWNS
ETC TAKING UP LARGE AREAS OF BEACH; PLENTY OF AREAS HAVE BEEN PAVED..MIGHT ADD IT IS A HUGE
IMPROVEMENT ON WHAT WAS THERE BEFORE!! ;)

FEW DAYS AGO I WENT TO A SANDPIT & DUG DEEPISH & PULLED OUT A LOVELY,GOLD CHILD'S BRACELET.
IT IS ENGRAVED ON BOTH SIDES SO HAVE PUT A NOTICE UNDER FOUND IN OUR LOCAL PAPER. THE CHILD
WOULD BE 8YRS NOW AS ENGRAVED DATE IS 2001. HOPEFULLY THE OWNER/PARENTS ARE STILL IN TOWN
& CLAIM IT. :D :D :D

CHEERS,

KATH

WONDERING DOES ANYONE ELSE BEACH & PARK DETECT WHILE WAITING TO GO BUSH AGAIN? SURELY
I CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE!! :$ WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE FOUND????????
Be kind to others & smile.

I took the grandkids to the beach at Geraldton with the XTerra to teach them about metal detecting.

Anyway I salted the area with a few dollar coins and miraculously found them, but lo and behold, suddenly the little tykes were finding their own 20c and other coins.

They had a ball.

All they want to do now is go and the bush and find some gold!

I'm going to send them out with you next time and a GPS so they can tell me your secret spots.

All the best

Bill
