Default Pris is the Best!

As Pris and I both mentioned in the past couple of weeks - we were both looking forward to getting together to hunt - as my wife and I are on vacation in California... well - yesterday was the day!

Pris had invited a couple of other friends: Michael (Greenwenvy on TQ) and another friend by the name of Kevin. Mike and Kevin arrived at our hotel first (Pris was caught-up in L.A. traffic) - so the two of them, along with Peggy and me hit the beach right outside of our patio for an hour or so...dug up a little clad and I found a large copper dangle-earring or necklace pendant (not sure which).

Pris and Noelle arrived shortly thereafter - and it was like I'd known her for years! We spent a 15-20 minutes laughing and talking - and then began to hunt our beach again...sorry to report that Captain Kidd's treasure is still safe and sound...all of us dug up a little more clad - but that was about it. We then moved over to the Oxnard Beach Park - where clad was aplenty...(I'm going back today). We hunted there until about sundown - and then headed off to "Pirates Grub and Grog"...actual name - I didn't make it up, folks! - for dinner.

At Pirates - we spent another couple of great hours talking about anything and everything - and had a great evening! Pris and Noelle plan to join Peggy and me in San Diego later this month for another day of fun...

It was an absolutely GREAT day - and we enjoyed making such good new friends! Noelle was the official photographer for the day - and Pris plans to post some pics soon - along with her thoughts of the day...

Again, I have to say that TQ has been such a "find" in and of itself...becoming friends with folks like Pris is truly finding treasure!

Shawn

I agree. The very best thing I have found since I started detecting is the friends here. Period.
