Saturday was the raft off. What is that you ask. Over 5 thousand boats tied together forming a river in the lake full of people walking up and down drinking everything they can.

They estimated over 5 thousand boats and 20 thousand people. I counted 8 people with detectors and numerous boats picking up cans for 10¢ each. Kevin and I probably picked up over 20.00 in cans and bottles ourselves.
So what did I find? A 14.95 gram silver necklace and a penny for the short time we were there. It was also a zoo on Sunday and we didn't stay. The necklace wasn't even a fresh drop!
Got lighters and sunglasses a few extra boat parts. I didn't hear of anyone getting a gold ring.
