Claudia and I went to Galveston Saturday 5/15/10 for an early morning hunt.
Houston and Galveston had a somewhat Severe Rain Storm all day Friday into Friday night. I had no idea that it had eaten away as much sand from the beach area until we got there. I guess the waves must have been pretty rough to cut the beach the way it did. I don't know if you can tell from the pictures but there's over 12" in spots of sand eaten away so we were able to get to items that would normally be to deep for the detector to find. As you can tell some of the items I dug up have definitely been there quite awhile. I decided to run some of the items through my tumbler for a day and a half to clean them up to show some detail. I really like the (5) Numbered Stewart Beach Tokens. They had about an 1/8" of crud on them before cleaning. I know that HARC Detecting Club has had Club Member hunts at Stewart Beach in the past where they bury tokens for different prizes. Does anybody recognize these Tokens as being ones the club has used before. If so, where do I collect my Prize, LOL. Still no ring but some interesting finds, at least to me.

Wow that is some erosion!

This reminds me when I was down at South Padre Island a few years ago... (don't think you can detect there) I just wanted to beach hunt so bad... I started eyeballing stuff in the surf... I got a $5 bill and a pair of RayBan sunglasses I sold on E-bay for $35

I'd love to have a well used beach to hunt...
