Default Bermuda is Hangin' In There

Most of the beaches are heavily sanded in at the moment but a few good gales will shake that up soon I hope. Water temp is 67F and air temp is generally in the 60's. There's Loot to be found but you have to be creative to get around the heavy dump of sand lying over top of the loot.
I hope things dry up for you soon,

BDA

Most of the fields near me are holding to much ice.

Cold (mid teens) and wet until yesterday so I didn't get out to MD over the weekend. It's currently 28 degrees here so today doesn't look encouraging either.

But.... there's always tomorrow!
