Ha, so true. I'm a total scavenger. I always scan the ground closely when I'm walking. Oddly, for whatever reason, I'm either just looking for interesting things or specifically for diamonds. I've found 3 diamonds in my life just laying on the ground - only one of which was real:P It is a rush though. I could totally see myself metal detecting.

Metal detecting is awesome. You'll find all kinds of cool stuff in my experience. Everything from small screws and nails to larger screws and nails. Or even bolts.

It's like the options of things I find are limitless (as long as limitless is roughly 3 things).

Me too. I'm always in the lookout for ... stuff. Last thing I spotted was a rattlesnake. Which I did not pick up.

I always scan patterns.
