A lighthearted look into the world of Metal Detecting including stories, equipment, information, finds and recommendations. Metal Detecting has a different meaning for each of us. For me it is a relaxing way to uncover history. Maybe not always gold or silver, but clues to who walked, lived and played in a location. My interests lie in colonial homes and farms. Living in New Hampshire these opportunities are all around. These types of sites are abundant from Maine to Virginia and everywhere in between. Hopefully this podcast will inspire you to go out and pursue your metal detecting dreams. And remember to always make One More Dig-It could be the find of a lifetime. You can email me with questions and comments at omdstories@gmail.com.

Welcome back! I am bringing One More Dig back in the next month or so. Also, On Monday October 17th at 9pm I will be the guest on American Digger Magazine's Relic Roundup Podcast. I will be discussing my article published in the most recent issue of America Digger Magazine called "Four Eras of a New Hampshire Farm." Please tune in.
Thanks to all of you who listened around the country and around the world! I had a great time recording these podcasts and an even better time fielding emails and messages. As of right now I will no longer record episodes of One More Dig. I am leaving the door open in the event I choose to jump back in, but for now I must say goodbye. Honored and Humbled~Dave
