I left on December 30th, 2005 on a trek that would encompass 7,100 miles and 9 states in 7 weeks. Cities of note along the way were Wilmont, MN--Omaha, NE--Edmond, OK--Springtown, TX--Dallas, TX--Willis, TX--Texas City, TX--Galveston, TX--Sequin, TX--El Paso, TX--Midland, TX--Albuquerque, NM--Truth or Consequences, NM--Tucson, AZ--Apache Junction, AZ--Castle Rock, CO--Littleton, CO--Thornton, CO--Erie, CO--Longmont, CO--Nebraska City, NE. Picked up 620 coins, 7 rings, 1 earring, 3 pendants, 1 foreign coin and other odds and ends. Click on my new website: www.dirtfisherman.com for pictures of some of the finds. I took ferry from Galveston to Bolivar Island to do some detecting at Crystal Beach. Visited the Alamo for first time in 43 years and saw some of the River Walk in San Antonio. Visited the Petroleum Museum and another museum that had vintage WW II aircraft in Midland, TX. Took a tour of the ASARCO Copper Mine south of Tucson and also went to Old Tucson and the Sonora-Tucson Desert Museum. Below are some of the people and places I visited.
