Default Beach Hunting

Just got back from the beach with "E". Had a good time. Didn't find a whole lot of stuff...1 Pennie, 1 nickel, and a whole bunch of bottle tops/ pull tabs... "E" did a little better as she will post later. We talked to 3 different people hunting the beaches while there. 2 were from the local area and the 3rd was from Kansas. Told all of them about this site and I think they will check it out soon enough. Always pays to recruit new people. I also saw somebody that looked too much like my ex wife. Really made my stomach churn for sure. Couldn't get away fast enough...Bad vibes on that one...Anyway the beaches are safe from the dreaded pull tab and the bottle cap for now. Also when my look alike ex left the beach, It should be safe for humans and small animals for sure. I know it made me feel a little better when she walked off..Happy Hunting...Buster...

Default I've heard of detectorists grabbing for the nitro pills for a CZ Ring.

Running into an exwife lookalike is a new one. Maybe it really was your ex and she was there to squeeze the nickel and penny out of your loot pouch.
Glad you got out and sorry to hear you had a hair raising experience.

Just to be on the beach makes it all worthwhile, and you found something, even if it was a look alike! Sorry. HH!!
