Testing new gear and personnel.. Ferrous non ferrous metal detector. Stella got a metal detector from my brother as gift.. At first she was little scared by the sound, and it have been standing for a few months. Last night she was in mood for testing it, and I promised first thing in the morning after breakfast.
So we drove to the beach to test the "thing" guess it could not find coin if 5 cm down, could hardly find the car..
Lucky for me I had "some targets" i accidentally dropped.. So we found little, and she was happy.. Even I had the chance to test the new detecting gear..
If interest continue I think it must be Bounty Hunter or similar..
Thank you for reading. - John.
PS - The eye pad cover it to retrain the eye becurse she have a squinting eye
Looks like you had a great time John. Much better than ipod and the dreaded xbox although my 10 year old would disagree! Good plan to plant a few finds to keep the interest going.

Yes.. Eyes.. The strabismus came shortly after her 1 year birthday.. over less than a week.. First the last year the Lazy Eye have developed.. So now they try to fix that with the patches.. Only for a tst periode from June to late August.. Guess they eventually will do small corrective surgery on the eyes... Normally done before School, and she starts in school Sep 3.. We have appointment on Hospital shortly before that..Hope everything turns out well, Or we have te rename her Marty B-)
