You have a great 'family' place to hunt but it is nice to get away from the routine.

If you are hunting slowly and methodically and have the patience, I'd concentrate on the parking strip on the N. side of Columbia Park. The last time I was in Portland and had an extra hour or so I pulled a Barber Dime and a couple of Merc.'s out of there. Didn't have an opportunity to make it back from the far side of Oregon.

Again, 'Thank You' for the detector and coil information.
