Backyard Metal Detecting With The Grandkids

[@DigginSoCal]

A very quick trip to transport my son's pets to him and do some quick fixes to the house!!!

[@Torchie2010]

Congrats on the New house Yes Christine...I walk 100 miles I walk 100 more. And dang got the william show song in my head

[@The14lbBaby]

I love watching you two for quite some time now..the odd friends who have fun together..I love your little helpers in this one!

[@JenniferHayesJVG]

The best treasure you got that day was spending time with the grandkids ❤

[@carolrice2063]

It's the Minnie Pearl Christine Show 😂🎉❤😂 with the Tags still hanging on her Boots....

[@lochlyngroff6369]

Hi. Happy to see you both again. I was born in Tennessee, we moved to Arizona when I was 2. I would love to go back just to see 😢 I now live in Maine. After my husband and grandson passed away in October 21, to be closer to my family. Thank you both for sharing your finds.

[@DIG_5050]

Bill, welcome to Diggin in the Midwest. Lots of junk, and bullet casings. But once in a while good stuff shows up. Try digging a little closer to the house. Imagine where people may have gathered in the past, and hunt there. Good luck!

[@DigginNorCal2770]

Hey Bill and Christine glad you guys made it safe to Tennessee and the grandkids were having a good time with the both of you guys and drive safe back to California so we can go hunting with you guys again

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks Robert.... we had so much fun and looking forward to hunting with you but I have to say the grandkids are more fun...haha

[@DigginNorCal2770]

@@DigginSoCal your grandkids had a great time with you and Christine

[@wiseguydigsgold]

GREAT video you guys!!! I loved seeing your liittle helpers, so cute!! Have a safe trip home.

[@GarysMetalDetecting]

What a great experience! Safe journey and good luck.

[@MrMarkmac85]

Grandkids are Amazing.

[@detectorguy4565]

Great to hunt with the family members as they will remember the days you spent with them. Always nice to see you two hunting, whether it be trash or treasure (it's all fun) :)yeah

[@williamtrussell8742]

Welcome to digging in Tennessee. Look close at that flattened bullet, it was hard for me to tell in the video but it could possibly be a Civil War Bullet. That is from looking at the base of it but it could also be a shot gun slug. Just look closer at it if you still have it. It is always fun to detect. Thanks for sharing.

[@annetteessman8827]

Tennessee so different from Cali. So fresh..green and clean. So much history too...my family lives in Tennessee..love it. Awesome grandkids Bill! 😊❤

[@mariogonzales5346]

Just one digging spot priceless😂

[@MiamiDetectorist]

And the Grandkids are adorable. I tried introducing my 5 yr old Granddaughter. Before I go my gear on she found a quarter and a dime. Then tabs. She quit, said she didn’t want to pick trash all day. Oh young, grasshopper. 😂

[@cyndeecollings9461]

I REMEMBER THE HUMITY BACK THERE ITS HORRIBLE. WE WOULD GO BACK TO ILL. EVERY YEAR TO MY IN-LAWS LOVED IT WHEN WE GOT BACK TO THE ARIZONA HUMITY NICE AND DRY, LOL.BACK THERE YOU COULDN’T STAY DRY. HOPE YOU ARE HAVING FUN.

[@donnaeli]

ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!

[@nicolasrossi5978]

The 200 y.o. nail was an awsome find. The kids ere excited and enthusiastic. All the best.

[@flamingomtn]

What a BEAUTIFUL property!!! One of my sons lives in Tennessee and my best friend also has people up there. Another friend has a wedding venue somewhere up there, too.

[@flamingomtn]

Nokta makes some really nice kids' detectors for not alot of money. I bought two of them for my grands but my granddaughter has outgrown hers and took over my Vanquish 440.

[@Sp8erman19]

Treasure is everywhere, and sometimes they help you with the hunt. Kids are great, but grandkids are better.

[@Debbie27]

❤😂 its the proclaimers...500 miles

[@Leonardo-m5p]

Hi guys The important thing is you had fun And most important Bill gave The William Show permission to detect 😂😅😂😅

[@myrayork6388]

You were so good with the kids

[@bryanolier6775]

Hi Christine and Bill nice hunt cute grandkids 😊

[@drakemiller2617]

That was fun to watch. The finds, while not spectacular, tell part of the tale of rural life in the heart of America. Maybe next time you'll find a lost Confederate treasure.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... yes, we had a great time and hated to leave but it was so nice to spend time with the Gkids..... You just never know how a hunt will turn out. I am blessed that I was able to help my son and his family out because it is so hard to buy a house and they could not have done it by themselves for quite a while. The best part is knowing the kids get to experience some rural living in a good community!!!

[@skippyjones4195]

There so cute 👍❤️✌️💪🏻☮️

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you.... I was kinda bummed when they decided to move 2000 miles away but I guess I will be traveling a lot more!

[@autistic.photographer]

The song I would walk 100 miles is by The Proclaimers. I love watching It's The William Show!😂 Love ya guys and Christine's commentary!

[@Drobek6]

great new stuff, always a pleasure seeing you guys and gratz with the new house. The song is 500 miles by the proclaimers :)

[@slyoldfox7874]

Loved seeing the Grandkids "helping" with the hunt

[@diggersouth]

The Proclaimers "I would walk 500 miles". I haven't thought about that song in a long time.

[@petersutherland7482]

What would the show be without 'it is the William Show, it's all about William ...' LOL Bill, you must be a Saint! Safe travels guys, hope someones looking after buddy!! ;-) 'And I would walk 500 miles and I would 500 more just to be the man who falls down at your door ...' Fantastic 90's song by the Scottish band The Proclaimers ... :-) OMG, been awhile since my (many) nephews and nieces were that young, the Grandkids are cute - telling you off! ;-)

[@davidlewis9068]

This is going to be very interesting, to say the least. IT'S the Wiiliam show 😂

[@DigginLouisiana]

The song is The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) LOL

[@randallcox4930]

The worm is going to be a Doctor..............Priceless!

[@Playing4fun2]

Lol TWS, the kids are so adorable that was fun glad you guys are enjoying your family stay safe I’ll see you on the next hunt bye

[@johnnymills9546]

Wow So close but yet so far. Virginia Beach is a good place to detect. Oh and Christine my wife got a few weeks ago and I watching and you started singing This is The William show now she comes when I'm watching other metal detectors videos and say no no I like the William Show better she likes the way you pick at him.

[@robertsanchez9030]

Great effort to bad no civil war relics, maybe next visit. 😊

[@jimgroleau1485]

The Kids Are Adorable. Lots Of Bullets In Tennessee I Guess. Enjoyed The Video.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you... Yeah, I was hoping to find something cool but you get what you get

[@tkcenterline1]

Awesome video. Yes you got a md digging plug shovel like I asked.

[@DigginSoCal]

LOL.... it is awesome and wow, I sure can dig some great big plugs!!!

[@tkcenterline1]

@DigginSoCal yep they work great. I use mine all the time. Plus, it supports your detector, so it is not bending the coil and not laying on the ground. Good luck.

[@karenyoung1759]

I missed you Saturday! Happy to see this video. Looked nice n muddy! See you on next one!

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah... we were driving a whole bunch and then hit a bad rain storm. I don't think we have missed a Saturday before? Thanks

[@richardcannady4424]

Great video. Those kids sure are cute

[@davidlewis9068]

Wow, lots and lots of bullets and a dream squasher pull tab, too.

[@tammytaylor1278]

They are so cute

[@Wekiva-j4b]

Cool place, Tennessee is nice, I'm about 10 miles from Tennessee in Kentucky how cool. If y'all come to the coal mining country of Kentucky let me know, you guys will be welcome to dig in my digging spot.. The last area of the Cherokee Indians before going west..

[@woodybogg]

I've been looking @ property in Tennessee that i could buy I would love to move from where I live now! Montana cold winters are getting hard on a person that's 65 Always nice to see you two ! Your Grand kids are so adorable!

[@JaniceSchubert]

Welcome to the ground diggin a la carte smorgasbord, lol. What a different hunt for y’all. Had to get you the Tennessee twang there 🤣. Now that looks like what I’m used to diggin. Our old farm up here in Ohio has that and more. I dig it all even though I get tired of the wire fence pieces and nails (even though they are the old hand made square ones) never know when a part of history will show up. I got really excited when I found a horse shoe, a D buckle, pieces to cast iron pots and even a very old ring with a blue stone in it, along with other great remnants of an old 1870’s house. Can’t wait to see what other great things you find in the dirt. Have fun a safe travels.

[@DigginSoCal]

Nice... yeah, I cleared out a lot from the back yard. It was fun and the hope was there...lol. I could not have done it without that awesome shovel... I wish I could use it in our parks.... that would be great. I met a guy that has lived there his whole life and he is in his 50s if I had to guess. He says he can get me onto some properties when I go back so that will be awesome.

[@gregorygibson5455]

Hello Bill and Christine

The Proclaimers: A Thousand Miles

[@BigMamaCat]

The kids are pretty cute. They'd wear me out in a heartbeat. You're both very good with them. A few interesting finds there. I'm not sure there'd be gold in them thar hills though. hehehehehe. The property looks great Bill. Wild strawberries? So cool. I hope your son and his family will be very happy there. Did Buddy come with you or is he with a baby sitter? I bet he'll miss you terribly, Christine. Take care out there & drive safe. Cheers, dears. ♥

[@edheida8825]

Our cuddle bugs have been here for a little over a week. My early mornings are on the couch with a cuddle bug on each side watching a variety of princess and cute kitty cat type vids. Kind of miss the digging but not really. They leave today 😢. Guess I’ll go back to detecting soon and find just regular treasures

[@mrmetaldetectorist]

Great trip, and the grandkids are adorable. Congratulations on the land and house.

[@aliciadanna2616]

Glad to see you guys having fun in Tennessee

It's 500 miles by the Proclaimers

[@keeganm6146]

Looks like a beautiful area

[@detectarizona1828]

I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers. This is the title of the song and the Artist who did it.

[@1967bluesfan]

When you are detecting house sites, especially ones with a large yard lime this, you should really target certain areas like around the house or clothesline.

[@RedEyedPatriot]

My Mother is stoked about the Xterra Pro. Ive been watching videos on them tryna get an understanding of the functions and settings. So im somewhat familiar with it before it gets to her. We appreciate you guys. Stay Diggin 😎

[@bryanolier6775]

NOW they have Xterra Elite

Love Bill's Shirt 👕

[@ShowMeMO-Digs]

Grandkids are so helpful.. lol

[@solocork1285]

Wow! I don't know which of those two little people is cuter but the comments about how water used to run there and maybe it fell off a boat when the river ran through there !!! What a bright button. REALLY enjoy this post and can't wait to meet their parents. You drove 2000 miles and couldn't throw us fans a crumb of what you saw and did? Oh, you're still editing a video of the trip?😂

[@robertbriggs1968]

Awesome 🎉

[@MM-zw8le]

GREAT JOB BILL✝️🌞Ⓜ️ !?

[@oldpelon]

Very nice

[@MiamiDetectorist]

The song is The Proclaimers, I’m gonna be (500 miles).

[@Steveostones]

Cool hunt in the greenery! The round ball has to be 00 or 000 buckshot?

[@SpectraV3i]

You just had to drop a video when I was just going to go finish push mowing.😂

[@johnbryan8011]

That lead ball is buckshot from a shotgun shell.

[@shelleydetects603]

Who else wanted Luna to hand the worm to Christine? This was not the William show, Luna stole the show.

[@jamescostabile862]

Very nice place, especially with all that land. Did you move out of Ca?

[@evacorsaro2807]

Are you moving to Nashville?

[@DigginSoCal]

Not at the moment. I bought the house but am letting my son and his family live there. However, I really liked it but need to be there during different seasons. You never know, maybe in the future

[@helensmith2839]

And William will walk 500 miles just to find a ring or a pull tab! Cause this is the William show the only William show,!

[@jamescostabile862]

Bill, if your sweating there in Tennessee...I know you will probably not visit Texas

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, I don't do well with humid heat.... yuk

[@BigMamaCat]

♫ Oh I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more, just to be the man who walked 1000 miles to fall down at your door. ♫ ~ The Proclaimers 🙂

[@garynichols8186]

So are you relocating to Tennessee permanently?

[@DigginSoCal]

Nah... maybe in the future. I bought the house and am letting my son and his family live there with the hopes they can own it in the future. I guess I may have to buy a second house to be closer to them if I decide to bail from the golden state.

[@larrystephens7437]

Be sure and build the chickens a fortress. They will need it to stay alive.

[@DigginSoCal]

Totally.... my son and his wife had chickens here and they had a good supply of eggs. Great experience for the kids

LOL... well said

[@jakebob6332]

Did you guys move from California

[@DigginSoCal]

No... bought the house and my son who moved there is living in it but now we have a place to go and visit, hunt and explore!!!

[@jakebob6332]

​@@DigginSoCal Oh ok. A big house like that and 1.5 acres in California would cost millions.

Does Luna get her head full of curles from her grandpa.

[@DigginSoCal]

Of corse...lol. I am not sure but it is so curly.
