Winter Blues ?

#1 Unread post by SensibleSal66 »

Let's face it , winter can be long and boring . So, what Metal Detecting activities do you enjoy indoors . Etc. Mapping , clean-up supplies / Detector, gain private access to sites etc.....
To brighten my day , I have my detector by the door for Inspiration . Here's my detector at the door looking to take a walk . : )

I just run my coin shop all year around. I help online more with coins in the groups and such. My break is fishing once a weak or spending time with my wife and grandchild. I do like to watch a good movie on the weekends.

Sit here and answer emails, coin forum (when I know the answer), and glass insulator hobby questions all day LOL!

When health allows, I go down into my "shop" and enjoy myself restoring old tools to new.

Sal, glad to help...if I do not know the answer, I can definitely find it for you and/or put you in touch with someone who knows for sure.
Send me a PM - pics - whatever.
