Three " Firsts " for me in one trip to the beach !
First let me say that I love this site ! After seeing the huge amounts of loot and plunder being posted on here on a steady basis , I've decide I need to shift my metal detecting into a higher gear ! I often sat here reading other's posts and thought to myself , why don't I find something like that ? ! And I finally figured it out. I need to get off my ass , and put in the hours ! LOL. I've usually only hunted about once or twice a month , for about five years now. That's not going to fill a ring box with vast amounts of booty any time soon ! I work from 4:00pm till midnight. I've always stayed up late after work, and then slept in the next morning , like a lazy turd. So the other day I decided to make a change. After three hours of sleep , my Wife and I woke up , and made the two hour drive to the beach. She relaxed in the shade by the water , while I put in close to six hours of hunting ! And I was able to get home in time to get ready and head to work. I'm not gonna lie. I was pretty beat by the time work was over. But , if I can do that at least once or maybe twice a week , this pirate should amass a glorious treasure of silver and gold at a much quicker pace than before ! LOL. At least that's my plan. Anyway , with that out of the way , here's my take for Saturday morning. Like I said in the title , three new firsts for me. First off , my very first silver earring ! ( .8g ) Next , my first tungsten ring ( actually a really nice one. It's a name brand one that's currently selling for $155.00 on their site. I'm sure I could easily get a blue stripe for it if I were to throw it on eBay ! ) It's pretty heavy at 15.4g . And my last find of the day was in knee deep water about two inches down , and found during my last pass in the lane. A beautiful 24" 14k gold chain that weighed in at 17.6g ! Also a first for me. It was still clasped together , which I believe is why the Excal II picked it up. All in all , it was a great new beginning to my plan of amped up treasure hunting ! Thanks for looking , Good Luck , and Happy Hunting everybody !
