Finally timed my trip to the beach , without that many ankle-biters to question me to death...
There is great history to Long beach,sometimes hidden but with thourogh research ,found again. Many good sites ended up covered over for parking ...one example i can think of, a couple of historical houses were ready to be moved from their foundations . seeing a choice opportunity i detected the dirt lots around them.

I went to spend Fourth of July with my fiancee up on Staten Island and she asked me to bring my equipment up so that I could spend some time hunting at South Beach (not too far from Verrazano Bridge) while she grabbed some rays.

Well, that turned out to be a huge bust ! Spent a lot of time digging odd signals and found absolutely NADA, including 3 or 4 blobs of lead that were ringing up as pretty strong quarter or half-dollar signals.

This past week I did a search of an area on some property my mother owns. There was nothing to show an old homestead except for some bricks in the middle of the forest. I almost instantly found some old farm tools, Shovel head, hoe head, old wheel probably from a turn of the century baby buggy, and about 13 bullets of different sizes. Lots of mason jar lids were found and most of an old watch. I took pictures of most of the stuff that I kept.

Well, I decided to get some "AFTER" fourth of july beach action here in good ole' LONG BEACH , CA. But as usual our local visitors leave more than "GOODIES" behind in the sand ......LET"S SEE WHAT WE GOT .....trash as far as i can see , diapers , lots of shoes , and burned out fireworks.
The Sand king machines that usually come by after holiday clean-up do a fair job most of the time, but it really stinks when retrieving a target with my scoop , I hit a "SOGGY"...
