    1st two days out this year:super:

    Finally got out the 2 other days. About an 1 1/2hrs per day after work. Went to a small park in town to get back into it, as the ground here has many small pools, the park was moist sand. Found 20 toy cars, 9 are hot wheels, my favorite. I was surprised to find a couple of Monopoly pieces, the...

    Coils??

    I'm wondering if anyone knows whether the 12.5" coil will go as deep as the 10"x14" DD coil. Most old homesteads around here have a lot of overgrowth, so some times I may need to keep coil about 6-8" off the ground. Or maybe I should get the 2 box for the GTI 2500, instead of the large DD. Any...
