Wow you found all that on a beach and in one day? I think I'd be calling in sick for work tomorrow and head back out there.
Congrats on the great finds.

That Beach Sure Delivered. Very nice, old finds and in very good shape for so long in the water. I expect we'll be seeing more nice finds from that location in the near future.

Cheers,

BDA
