Hello, & Welcome to the forum...
Looks like your off to a great start, $10.oo's in clad is smoke'n
I don't dig a whole lot of clad, seems that most of the parks I hunt are pretty much cleaned out...
Congrats on a great first, Good luck, & Happy hunting~
 

Congrats texva! Nice find...keep it up and there will be many more.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the silver. It will bring back memories later on. HH Burdie
 

Congrats on your first silver. The rest will come alot easier now. I was never any good on a computer either. When I first came here I was lucky I could make myself a name. It all comes with practice.

Now I'm taking more pics than I ever thought and writing stories for W&E treasure magazine. People are telling me my pics are some of the best they ever saw. Practice makes perfect just like anything you do.
