I did it! I did it! I did it!!!!

[2ndoldman]

For 5 years now I have been saying that I am stone blind.
Well I have been out with Greg Szybala detecting and point hunting for the last 2 days.
Greg has been able to find points both days but as usual I drew a blank the first day out.
That all changed today and I found my first field point.
Greg was about 300 feet away when I shouted out. I AM NOT STONE BLIND.
And he definitely heard me.



Detecting finds to come tomorrow.

Now that the monkey is off your back, you will start finding them everywhere...hopefully.

[2ndoldman]

My fingers, toes and eyes are crossed.

[Sage hen jack]

Ahh man. Great find👍 Congrats 2nd

[2ndoldman]

Thank you.

[tomf]

Ha, ha!

Fantastic.

Lovely little thing it is.

[2ndoldman]

I was on cloud 9.

[Broken Arrow]

Congratulations, Bruce!!! The floodgates are opened! Great first find man! Out of curiosity, have you ever ran your detector over any rocks and got a signature.

[2ndoldman]

Yes I have, some sites are full of "hot rocks ". It can be frustrating but after the 3rd or 4th one you learn to avoid them by remembering the sound.

[Sugaree]

Congratulations Bruce! The monkey is finally off your back I know your happy he looks happy too. Hopefully many more will show up for you. I can't wait to see your detecting finds just found my first silver coin. Enjoy your trip I'm enjoying seeing your awesome finds!

[2ndoldman]

Congrats on your first silver coin. 👏👏👏 No silver coins for myself yet but I do have a couple of firsts to share.

[gregszybala]

You couldn't wipe the smile off of his face!
Congrats Bruce, glad I was there to witness it.

[2ndoldman]

I had no plan on removing that smile Greg, I am still happy about it. 😁

[OnewiththewilD]

That’s awesome you guys are getting to hang out. Take lots of pics and have a great time! Good luck to the both of ya’s!

[2ndoldman]

Thanks Jay. Greg made a sweet find in his second or third hole with one of my detectors.

[JoshinMO]

Bruce, I wasn't sure this Day would come but YOU DID IT! Congrats Man, decent Point also. Nice of The Folk's to share Their Spot's also.

[2ndoldman]

Josh, I know what you mean. I have lost track of how many times I have said that I was stone blind over the last 5 years. Give me a metal detector and I can find something anywhere, ask me to find a worked stone out in a field full of stones and I go blind.

[tomclark]

I heard ya!!

[2ndoldman]

Thanks Tom, I think the whole county might have heard me.😁

[willjo]

The Bruce is loose, Wild Canuck Arrowhead finding metal detecting man is loose below the border finding everything in his path. Good finds Bruce and more good luck to you.

[2ndoldman]

Thank you Johnny, I can't thank you enough for your hospitality my friend.

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Make me Smile too !😀

[2ndoldman]

I know the grin on my face made Greg smile.

[SurfaceHunter]

Are you color blind? I would think if you were all rocks would look the same. I am on certain greens and browns. Congratulations

[2ndoldman]

Definitely not color blind. I can walk a field all day with a detector and watch the scenery around me.
Ask me to stare at the ground while I am walking and I go cross eyed.

[SDhunter]

What an excellent day! Friends and finds, and it was a good one too!

[2ndoldman]

Thanks Gary, It was an absolutely fantastic day.

[Kentucky point]

Way to go, Bruce! That is an excellent find! Glad to hear you are having fun!

[2ndoldman]

Thank you Ethan, I'm sorry that we were unable to get together this trip.

[Kentucky point]

That's okay. Maybe next year, I will be able to find a creek or something that produces and have you down here.
