I had my meeting with my career coach this morning at 10:00, but decided to see if anyone lost any treasure down at the beach at first light.  I got to the beach and it was still dark.  By the time I got on the beach, there was just enough light to see.

OMG... so many beer cans buried in the sand...  But it was still kind of fun to dig things up as well as getting used to the settings and beeps depending on the material and how deep it was.

I did see some beans swimming in the skinny along with a bunch of anglers, but the grass was TERRIBLE!

I did find a few coins along the way, but most were bottle caps if they weren't cans.

I worked a lot of beach before it was time to get going.  On my way back I passed 6 other guys metal detecting!  Holy crap, I almost couldn't believe it!

Well, my best finds were 3 pennies, a peso, and a Ford Raptor!  lol

I got back in time for the meeting, but I did talk with quite a few locals on the beach.  They all asked if I was finding jewelry and I just laughed.  I said I had really good luck catching fish, but my metal detecting really sucks.  LOL

One day...

Used to scatter BBs on the beach. They go right through the sifters.

For one split second, I thought it was a ring.  In any case, I still enjoyed finding it.
