grubstake Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Well Sunday is my 61st B/D and I can't go sunday, but Sat. come hell or high water! I'm going detecting and get me a nugget. I haven't been detecting in almost a month and then it was only for acouple of hours, this rain we need, but cabin fever I got. So off I will be, even if I have to wear rain gear.

Admin nuggethunting Posted February 4, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hey Grubstake, I posted a response to selling my GPX-4500 on another thread if you didn't see it. It was just a good time for extra cash for our recent move. I'm sure there is a GPX-5000 coming, but with the backorder status of the GPX-4500's, it don't make good business sense to release it. Hope you find some nuggets.Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no I don't feel much better, having trouble with my heart and they think maybe I have pancreaitis. Caused by some of my heart meds. I just take it day by day. . Grubstake Most I ever weighed was 206 and that was last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pondmn Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Gary you can use my duckhunting waders, tie my boat anchor to your leg, then shrink wrap your detector and you will be ready to go. Been raining down here for some time. Just a matter of time til some better weather. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Hi Gary 61 is not old and you get better with age.Now I don't know who said that but I do know he is full of bull.I do know getting old is not for the weak because you have to be strong to make it. I hope you can get out soon to nugget hunt and find the big one of all big ones for your Birthday.Just think I'm ahead of you by 7 years plus some. Take care Gary.
