NEW User Name: RV'n Iowans

[Dick from IA]

Since joining on Aug 2, 07 I've used the name Dick from IA, one I've had at numerous metal detecting forums. Yes, I'm a metal detectorist; Yes, I ask for permission, and Yes, I dig neat holes and cover them properly. Lots of people have disdain for detectorists, which is too bad; most of us are well behaved and respect the properties we detect, and we clean up lots of trash, too

 

We have decided to adopt a User Name more fitting our lifestyle, which is RVing and now Geocaching. My wife, Pat, hasn't been too involved in my metal detecting, but she does like the Geocaching idea, and besides she's the one with computer savvy, and there's a lot of that required here.

 

Once our account is activated in 24 hours, we'll be posting as RV'n Iowans

 

BTW, Love this place

Thanks, poppoppig for the welcome; Cache #1 is really a problem at this time. I've loaded five caches into my GPSr to locate, but the problem is all are either under water or I'd be ankle deep in mud going after them. Have had daily rain totals of 8.5", 1.5" & 5.5" over the past three days. Spent two all nighters at my daughter's home trying to help get water from her basement, and it's still coming in strong.

 

These storms are remnants of Tropical Storm Erin & are to move out Friday. Then a 3 day reprieve and supposedly the effects of Hurricane Dean will take over where Erin left off. Hard to believe that a month ago the grass "crackled" when walking on it.

 

Thanks again for the Welcome.
