:usaflag: Let The fun Begin!! :detecting:

Yesterday I spent almost three hours wading in the cold yet placid water at our local beach swinging my Dual Field. The strap tore loose from the cuff on my right hand rubber gauntlet and I was forced to use neoprene diver's gloves. I had forgotten to bring another pair as a spare. A handful of junk metal, a silver toe ring and necklace, and five pennies were all I had to show for lots of digging and suffering with cold arms and hands.

This AM I decided to check out a different section of beach and spent three hours of dodging swells out of the south-east which somehow soaked my right hand causing discomfort worse than yesterday. There was no wind to drive the swells so it puzzles me how they could be so large.

Persistence paid off though, because I was able to recover 85 cents, eleven bottle caps, a bit of brass, 4-fishing sinkers, some junk iron, 2-bobby-pins,

and a pretty junk ear-ring along with 1- 18K wedding band!

Nice ring, to say the least. In my location of the world, we are dodging severe storms (I live in tornado alley), so the fun has begun for us. Today, I was on my roof repairing shingles from storm damge. And I just replaced the roof last summer. Hate spring time storms!!!!!

Only the bravest of the brave would live in tornado valley.

bulletman, I grew up in Texas and learned to watch the skyline when weather got un-settled. A few years after I moved to Connecticut in '70 I stood looking at some wierd (For this area) clouds when my boss asked me what I was doing.

I told him that where I grew up we would be looking around for a hole to hide in when clouds like those were around. He said that we would never have to worry about tornados here. Within a day one destroyed an air museum about 60 miles away and killed one person as I recall. I guess there aren't many place where you are completely safe.

Good luck to you and your family Friend,

CJ
