Arrrrrr. FINDING PIRATES BURIED TREASURE






I bought my wife a Garrett ACE – 150 metal detector. 

Yesterday was the first time detecting.  We have waited for her to regain her strength after her cancer treatments, and for the weather to cool enough that the bugs would not be a bother.   We went to a place about three miles from our house, on the Sandy River, used by swimmers and kayakers.     We spent an hour detecting and found one penny.  

After detecting we drove to a country diner about eight miles north.   We had fish and chips and the bill came to $20.00 – It actually only cost us $19.99 as we used our metal detecting find to help pay for lunch. 

We are now officially Treasure Hunters

Perhaps a little older

  1. You're not too far away from Oak Island, relatively speaking. Maybe you'll be the ones who finally find the treasure! It makes me happy to hear that your wife is well enough to go out and play with her new toy! -Jenn
