They could knock off 2 zero's off and I don't think they would see a nibble from this wallet.
The technology isn't refined enough for the average small find searcher.
I'm now sure on how small of a target it would detect.

I've never heard of this unit Jim, it's incredible to think of how far technology has come when it applies to detectors.

Many other blogs and articles talk about the first metal detector being invented by Alexander Graham Bell. In 1881, he used one in an attempt to locate and remove a bullet from President James Garfield’s back after he was shot by Charles J. Guiteau. The attempt to locate and retrieve the bullet was a failure however, as the metal springs of the bed he lay upon interfered with the crude metal detector. Sadly, the President would soon perish from an infection that set in from attempts to retrieve the bullet. Not from the gunshot itself, which was later deemed non-fatal.

It was not until roughly four decades later that metal detecting would take a huge leap forward in the 1920’s. German immigrant and inventor Gerhard Fischer was granted the first US patent for a metal detector in 1925, based off of radio direction finding. He shared the idea with Albert Einstein who was so impressed, that he predicted the worldwide use of metal detectors after seeing Fischer’s idea.

I had the strange feeling I was being watch as I eat my 'Moose Tongue'... as I slowly turned around, I saw it out of the corner of my eye behind me!

How can you eat in front of the cutie-without sharing?

Which brought me took me down the rabbit hole of the why's?
Why/how to/solution/something I didn't know. The low down on "Dog Spit"

How To Get Rid Of Stains Around Your Dog's Mouth And Paws. Porphyrins are also present in your dog's saliva, and will cause similar reddish brown discolouration around your dog's mouth. You can use the same eye contact solution or eye wash to neutralize the stains.

Read also that a mixture of Boric acid/distilled water for a solution.

The peroxide is safe for use on your dog's fur and will help bleach away stains. You can also mix a solution of 1 tablespoon of boric acid and 1 cup of distilled water. Bring the solution to a boil and then cool to room temperature. Mix well and apply it to the area around the mouth.

Something that we don't need to worry about with the Max-Just need to get some that "Grey away"

I hope Rookster is OK, hasn't reported in yet.
Crazy storms reported throughout the mid States.
40/60 tornadoes
One stayed on the ground for 200 miles, now that's really scary 😨

No worries here about muzzle discolouration Jim... as soon as she drinks from her water bowl, the stains disappear.

Yes we have been watching news since we got up. I have been watching weather bug for Rookster area. Mr WD has family in western ky. Dad and stepmom are ok and a cousin. Aunt and uncle and other family still have no idea.

Well it might be a little playtime out on the roads this AM
Have a 1 hr drive to a farm for the Mrs BD breakfast party.
All the best to all the pirates and I hope the storms pass you all bye.

Need a photo of that, please.
Sounds like magic.

Well I did a milk run to the city today.
Had to make the best of the outing.
Felt kind of strange it did.
Probably the last one for this year for me.
Stay safe everyone, may the storms pass us all bye.

We’ve got one passing by as I post this. It’s 71 now and this afternoon it will be in the 50’s. This is some crazy weather for December.

Yes Dave
From what I’ve read the Fisher’s and the White’s purdy much started it all. White sold the old Western Auto detector for years. I’ve had both. I’ve found more gold rings and such with my White and deeper stuff with Fisher and Deus. The older AT Pro hasn’t been bad either.

Good morning Rookster and releventchair.

Wild night here in Kentucky.


Over 100 people are feared dead in Mayfield, when a candle factory was destroyed by what appears to be an EF4 Tornado. I've visited the factory before, and have met some of the workers. Seems surreal. Western Kentucky University got hit and a student was killed. The same tornado traveled over 200 miles, apparently stopping right where a good firend of mine lives. I hope he's alright.

Good morning everyone, hope you all have an amazing day. I've got a wedding to cater today so going to be an extremely long day.

Long swim to catch up to the ship.
Small fry rug rat is much better thank you all for thoughts & prayers. Now he's a little speedster running around the ship.

Sad to hear about Mike's wife, condolences & prayers for him & family.
