Default I did a little pirating this weekend! 1 - gold and 1 - silver

Got back from Mexico with a strong desire for some Bermuda loot. I tried a hunt at Elbow Beach on Sunday afternoon but it was badly sanded in so I fell back on a beach that consistently delivers the loot, Horseshoe Bay.
It didn't take me long to hear the sweet sound of gold in my headphones and I proceed to dig up a nice 14k yellow/white gold band. Initially I thought it had small diamonds as well but it is just the way the stars are engraved into the white gold, a minor disappointment. It is a heavy and thick band which disappeared into my loot bag as I continued to look for more buried treasure. Ten minutes later I heard a faint but high pitched tone and figured it would be a silver dime but instead I found a silver ring. The tide started to turn a little after that so it was time to head in, not a hat trick but 2 rings in less than 2 hours was good enough for me.

Cheers,

BDA
