Hunted Two Beaches Yesterday!!

[Cupajo]

Dual Field, Diablo and I have been going stir crazy for a week now waiting for the weather and tides to give us a break!

Finally I had a chance to get out into the water and check out conditions left by our recent weather.

As I suspected the sand was cleared away down to the stony bottom on the lea side of the stone breakwaters I checked and I was able to retrieve these targets from among those small boulders.

The finds on the bottom are from the first beach after 2 hours of digging.

The upper ones came from what I have come to know as "The Boulder Field" where I spent almost a half hour recovering a dime from among the stones between two boulders too large to move.

One of the dimes is a Merc. and in fair condition rather than wasted away by the elements as most usually are.

I include the trash with the keepers, because every target recovered from among those stones is a triumph of patience and skill!!

The "BF" is protected somewhat by its location and had a larger area to hunt than the first beach.

It's also where I found the last gold rings I recovered and has hidden somewhere out there three more I am looking for I promised I would search for.

After another 21/2 hours my hunting partners, Dual Field and Diablo, and I were ready to call it a day and perhaps we'll find the gold next time,
