Thanks everyone, I don't know if I'll ever have another year like this one.

Wayne, I knew what you meant

Randy, I would like to thank you for all of the help that you have given us on this great forum. Also thanks for those old aerial photos. they were a BIG help in locating those old school houses. I knew right where I was going to go before I even got to the field and they also helped me locate a few old ball fields.

I say thanks to all you guys that are sharing your knowledge and finds. This forum is the greatest. I'm still "paying my dues" with the new 705 as it's a big change from the Tejon but things are starting to come together for me. I'm pulling deep wheats from old pounded areas although no silver as yet. Mostly running all metal with 99 tones and picking clads out of the iron on every trip. I'm also swapping between the stock coil and the HF 6". All of your posts have been a great help and I'm looking forward to a super new year.
