We can't ask for better weather to swing in here in Florida, even though the lack of erosion has put my attention back on the mainland, spending majority of my time at local parks and higher traffic areas I had that internal noise screaming for the beach. Spent a few hours side stepping between the low and high tide line with 2 partial nails to show for it. Discouraged with conditions I scanned briskly scanned the low tide line as I headed back to the rig, at the same time I came across my 2nd nail signal, something resembling seaweed caught my attention about 15ft ahead of me, wave comes in and I realize that it's not seaweed, was able to retrieve this just before another wave possibly took it out. Heck of an eyeball find.

I'm down sponge, in the water at Jensen now, unreal flat, bit chilly for my skinny self but the wet suit helps. Amazing day for being outside. Warm thoughts for all north of Gainesville, most likely this will be my sons graduation present this year or he can have the movado I found in nov. Either way nice gift for graduation hopefully.

On a side not sponge, I have always wanted to get the logo made custom with semi precious stones for the diamond shapes in it. But really there are 6 superbowls they won so my chances are increased to one day cross of finding one for Pittsburgh on my bucket list:p
