Recently I took my wife to a local Park to do a little mding. She is new to the hobby and is still learning to use her GTA 750. I have equipped her with all the tools she needs to recover coins, probe, Lesche digger, and a Automax pinpointer. I had just bought her a small sniper coil to work the high trash area of the park, and I was excited to see how she would do with it. As we began our hunt I walked ahead of her, not paying much attention to what she was doing. Over a period of about 30 minutes though I noticed that she had not gone further than 15 feet away from the truck. I saw that she was sitting on the grass doing something, so I went back to see if something was wrong. I noticed that she was scrubbing the grass with the pinpointer. I ask her what she was doing and why she wasn't swinging the detector, I am sometimes impatient, and she told me to leave her alone and to go on, that she would be along shortly. I told her she wasn't going to find anything scrubbing the ground with the pinpointer, I know everything about mding, ha ha, she reached into her coin pouch and pulled out a large handfull of coins, and ask me what I had found. It was at this time that I wished I had not came back to see if she needed help as I pulled out the one nickel I had found. You should have seen her smile. She then went back to scrubbing the ground with the pinpointer as I stood there shaking my head. She found two more coins so I decided that I should leave her alone to avoid further embarassment. I guess she's learning, what do you think? HH Dennis in Idaho
