Hello all

[gradywhite]

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone. I just found this forum and will probably be spending a good bit of time here as Im new to the metal detecting hobby.
I live in coastal SC just south of Charleston and have found it very fun and interesting to "sweep the yard" for relics from the Civil War. The family and I have only spent about 3-4 hrs in the yard and already found: a watch fob, parts of a 9" and 11" Dohlgren(sp) balls, numerous K shot and besides the nails and bolts some other things we are not sure about.
Anyways I look forward to learning and chatting.

What's up Grady!!!
Ole Grady linked me here so to have a look around myself. Nice,,,,,,,you guy's have really put together a good lookin' group of forums!

Like Grady I'm also from the Charleston area, to be exact I live on the bank of the Ashley river. As a young boy I would play in and around the salt marsh just pulling all kinds of stuff outta the mud, bringing home a nice big round cannonball around the age of 8 for my mother.
Well,,,,,,,after the police left, taking my cannonball with them, I went out and found another one. This time I didn't tell anyone.

Anyway, let me go have a look around. I've got alot of reading to do.

Hello MESA. I just replied to a thread http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,46473.0.html started by Summerville Joe wanting to do the same thing. I may be up for a get together or two depending on work!

Yea me and him have emailed about it. Something should be set up for a coffee meet and greet sometime in the near future. Until then, save some of those good finds for me
