Okay so you have been to every antique store on your usually route. You have seen all the usual old stuff. You have read all your favorite books twice. Now what?You Need A Hobby. Be a modern day Treasure Hunter; get a Metal Detector! It’s easily transported in your RV, simple to use and cheap (once you find a metal detector) just a battery every once in awhile. Go find your own old stuff and pick-up some laundry money as a bonus. You get sun, fresh air, exercise, some spare change and its fun. The fun part is you never know what you will find.
Being an RVer you have a new source of treasure at each campsite. Just take out your metal detector and poke around fire rings, picnic tables and beaches. Or turn it in to a serious hobby. Pack a picnic lunch and go in search of old homesteads, mines, logging camps, etc.
To get you started I put together some Treasure Hunting Tips. (Mom click the link.)
Until the next post: Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers. Or is it One Mans Treasure…?

Great blog page. Travel on........
Hey Mike, I'm thinking that you are probably the most qualified individual I know to suggest hobbies. So I did some quick math. You departed Eugene Friday, July 24. As of Friday, Sept. 18 (8 weeks later) you were in Lake Shastina, CA. which is 256 miles from Eugene. Phoenix is an additional 1000 miles from Lake Shastina. Given your current rate, your forecasted arrival in Phoenix will be 32 weeks from now or about late April, early May 2010. It will take about a month to get from our house in Phoenix to our cabin. And, you would get to see your mother in Florida in Mid-August.....2011 assuming you stay in Phoenix, one evening, skip the cabin, skip Tucson, and skip Nevada. Clearly driving is not one of your hobbies..
