  • Searching for gold can be dangerous with large waves that can knock you down and drag you our to see. Dave, Brad, Kieth, Mike and myself all battled the conditions and we all found GOLD and Silver.

    Great hunt. Sorry to hear about the carpel tunnel surgery. You must be having more than just carpel tunnel done. I've had it done on both my wrists. The surgery took literally 15 minutes and I was back to full function after 10 days when the stitches came out. It really wasn't bad. Hopefully yours will be just as easy.

    During your down time do some Q @ A video's and answer questions we all want to ask. Show us more cleaning of coins and tell us what you do with them, like we know you use the quarters for laundry but what do you do with the rest. What is your goal with the gold you find? If you can share some things about your family. But most of all take time to heal because I promise you if you don't it will get you later in life when your hands start to get worse in the surgery area, I had both done in my 30's and as a busy Mother couldn't rest them like I should have and now 50 years later things are stiffing up and hurting. Good luck and the beaches will be there in April or May just like before. Sharon.
