Just got an email from my ex neighbor. Their son, who shared some awesome metal detecting with me is now in an ICU unit and not expected to make it through the weekend. Last time we went detecting he got ill, came down with a respiratory infection and lost one lung. Never quite healed from that and over the last few years has gotten worse.
Somewhere back there in the archives is a post or two relating how the first 7 times we went hunting he came back with a gold ring each time or pretty close to those numbers. He moved south and could not move around enough to go md'ing anymore. A few years younger than me, mid 40's and a great guy to have along on the hunt. He had that uncanny unability to find the goodies seemingly at the flip of the on switch and never considered life's hardships anything but blessings in disguise.
Have a good one Eric, there's gold ahead for you.
