Another 4 Hours In The Trenches Of Soft Sand 2-24-13

[Bigpoppa]

Well headed out to a beautiful high 40's day at the beach in February..Couldn't really ask for a much nicer day, as no jacket or gloves were needed..
I was pretty optimistic that today would be the day that after hundreds of targets recovered that some yellow may appear in one of the many holes...

Well unfortunately I don't hunt the Golden shores of Conn, Morocco, Japan, So Cal, East & West Fla, Australia (did I leave any gold rich areas out ?)...

All I can do is keeping paying my dues and getting some hard core exercise..

The conditons by the water are pitiful right now, so once again I made the best of the high tide line and above...

I finally managed to find some jewelry if you want to call it that

Totals for the day:

$2.97 in Clad ..maybe one wheatie, but nothing else old

1- Jumbo Ornate Cross...very nice looking, but nothing of any great value

1- Bling Earring ...very nice looking, but more junkola

1- Broken piece of .925 Jewelry..of course the tiniest piece of the day

1- broken wing...I'll assume junk

1- Rem-UMC Headstamp

A pretty big pile of metallic human waste for the trash pile

I have to admit for the first time in quite awhile that I am a little disappointed that nothing of any real quality has appeared after all of these recoveries over the past week... All I can do is keep swinging and get back out there tomorrow...

I will continue on by gridding the next 3 block area tomorrow...Once I'm finished the stretch, I think I'll head south to the wealthier communities and try my luck there..

Good Luck to you all & Happy Hunting !!

Amen........that's two of us...!!

Your time's a coming BP, summer gets here you will be the King.....and Hamid will be swimming for the Jersey Shores to help you dig all that gold.

Yep, that looks about like 4 hours of hunting stuffs, to me!
You'll get da gold next time!

All them old and junk crosses you find, you can make a nice picture with them. I saw one for sell somewhere.
Take an open frame, chose a back color, and arrange the crosses all inside the frame, hanging. The differences and different sizes make a nice assymetrical affect. The one I sawed before was really nice.

A little silver is better than no silver

Thanks guys !!

I guess I was just tired and cranky late yesterday when I posted my finds ..
In actuality it was a pretty darn good hunt considering what everybody else is currently digging in my area..
Today is a brand new day and I feel ready to go again ..

For me, its great hunt Detecting is gold Day with gold and other day no gold, but there is great day
When you hunt, you should not think the Gold, so you think of Gold, when you found iron sand
Happy hunting next spin

Sometimes Exercise is the best reward nothing wrong with that.

Great hunt, but I would double check that cross, looks silver from the photo's. It might turn out be a better hunt yet.

Cheers
