Well, after the 4 ring day even though I had high hopes it never turned out as well but it was an interesting day none the less. I was up at 3 am for low tide and worked in the dark like a stumbling idiot but found some neat stuff. Glasses, an earring, shell casing (WWII Practice range at Myrtle?) and a heavy lump of black encrusted I don't know what.

Later in the morning, the wife and I hit a different section of the beach up the road and didn't do to well but I managed to pick up what I thought was a quarter but turned out to be a Ripley's token for the arcade and a hoop earring.

Back out again at 3pm for the 4 pm low tide and decided to try the Sand Shark in the normal mode... I had been using it in VCO and thought that now would be a good time to test it in normal. I was hitting the same beach I had found the 4 rings and wasn't sure I'd find anything with how hard I hit it yesterday. In the normal mode, I worked even slower than I thought was slow...could be cause my body is sore from 6-8 hours a day detecting... I hit more clad than I had normally at this part of the beach and then got two of my goals again all in one find. I picked up a set of dog tags with a girls class ring... So now the search will be on to find the owner so I can return them.

Only have two goals left for this week... Platinum and big gold with lots of large diamonds.... only 2 1/2 days left so I have to try to hold out physically...

Time for some recuperative sleep, 4 am is a short ways away....

That sounds like some good hunts. At this pace you'll make your goal by the end of the vacation if you hold up.

Take a small handful of aspirin and wash it down with a couple of 5-hour energy shots... you'll be alright :laughing7:
