Monday's beach finds

Got in about 8 hours of beach hunting on monday. My first 5 targets were bottle caps and I was not liking how things were starting out. Fortunately, the next target changed my thinking a bit. It was a small earring with an even smaller purple stone in it. I turned it over to see that 925 on it. Silver. My first in a few months. I almost didn't find it. I scooped it up and rescanned the hole and the signal was gone. I took a closer look at my scoop and there it is hanging from the metal mesh of my scoop. Besides the earring, I found $7.72 consisting of 11 quarters, 36 dimes, 16 nickels and 57 pennies. Plenty of trash: 48 pulltabs and easily twice that amount in bottle caps. One weird thing though, I didn't see any other MDers out there. I was constantly looking around. I've been going there pretty regularly for the past 6 years and there is normally at least 4 guys in the water and 4 or 5 people working the dry stuff. It was kinda creepy

It is kinda creepy when your the only one out there and all you here are the waves spashing along the shore line....Been there done that, as the sun is coming up in the East! Still, it sounds like you had a decent day!!! HH

Willy d, the last time I looked around and I was the only one there was when a storm was approaching. I was keeping my eyes on the sand and not looking at the sky.

You did well with all the change. Good job.

Yeah, in the past I've gotten to the beach before dawn with a thunderstorm out in the gulf. The beach was empty, it was dark. It was a little spooky. Then you get used to the steady hum in the headphones, then BAM! that first signal, that's scared me. That kind of scare always makes me laugh.
