Reflecting on 2013

Looking back at 2013.......the good and the bad, I'm looking forward to another year of hunting. I can honestly say, I hunted less this year, in part because we had an incredibly rainy summer....and the sanded-in beaches were frustrating.

I found less gold this year, but more diamonds. I found more rings this year, but less gold rings (but more silver). I found more small gold, but I credit the excal for that. I also seemed to find a bunch of fake/plated stuff this year??. What I will take away from 13 is knowledge, both from time spent on the beach and gained on this forum.

Some other lessons learned, always keep your cell phone in a zip=lock baggie, even when you don't intend on getting in the water.....always make sure your scoop is in the trunk before you drive away from the beach (luckily it was there when I got that oh crap feeling and pulled a U-Turn). Oh, and don't always listen to crap people tell you on the beach.....twice this year I had people trying to divert me away from places by giving me BS information.

Have a Safe and Happy New Year everyone :occasion14:

Yes, I botched up the title of the post....but as far as I know, only an admin can edit those.

That's Easy Red:
All one needs is a time machine such as the Delorean car in "Back to the Future".
Or believe in a strong dollar policy, because one is told so , and in fiat currency(s) backed by the promises of Government. Or follow the research of Dr. Timothy Leary and just turn on, tune in, drop out. Re read " Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Or if you are a do it your selfer, spend a weekend without water on a mesa in the desert after having been bit by a rattle snake. Simply put, it is all in the mind!

Sorry Ron: There are no vacancies!

Cave(s) are either fully occupied by the Millenium Generation as part of their entitlement(s) or feral hippies!

Today is the last Day of 2013,if you can't reflect on that . you need to get out more and stop living in a Cave !!

For me, 2013 was one of those years that inspired me and motivated me to set new goals for 2014. Never quit chasing your dreams and ideas folks, after all, the hardest part is actually pursuing them, the distance between seldom as far as it often appears. :thumbsup: Here's wishing everyone an amazing and awesome 2014.
