Found a Whole Bunch of Not Very Much Today

[bdahunter]

I headed down to Horseshoe Bay for Surf Church today. I knew I was in trouble from the get go, sand was soft, a 2 foot chop was breaking in the lane and the wind was kicking up to small craft warning levels. No Bikinis to brighten the day, even. I hit the lane and the mine with little success and pulled back to the shelter of the swimming hole. There was a little loot there but not much. I haven't been able to hunt for the last 2 weeks due to work and a trip back to Canada for a funeral so I was determined in spite of the conditions.
Total take for 2 hours was $1.00 in clad, a bright sparkling .925 earing (I could buy Manhattan Island with the pile of these baubles I've collected), a gold plated toe ring (YUCK!), an old British Large Penny (WWII era), a fishing lure (nice but I don't fish for anything but gold fish) and a 1961 Canadian Penny (same age as me and in about the same condition). No gold in the scoop today but I had fun just the same.
What else can a Pirate ask for? (well, Gold of course but like I said none of that today)

Cheers All,

BDA

PS: I forgot to mention the trash pouch full of can slaw but at least there's less of that for me to find next time.

You did better than me, but at least we got out in the sun! Of course, there's bound to be lots more gold for a pirate like yourself even if today wasn't a gold day. Yo-ho-ho!

Not bad for a 2 hour hunt. Hope you find the gold on your next hunt.

I didn't mean to sound like a whiner, perhaps it's just the gold fever creeping up on me. The water is approaching 70 F so it will be full on with the hunting soon.
Having Fun is the Most Important Part of a Hunt,
