Good morning everyone.

Good morning. The hurricane remnants made it clear up here. Winds hit close to 50 and my yard if full of small branches and leaves. An amazing show of strength from Mother Nature!

Will this storm affect your treasure hunting? Meaning, will it bring anything up? Or bury things deeper? What happens on the ocean bottom? How deep of water will storm churn up on the bottom?

It will be good for sure....any type of erosion will be good for me....there has not been any good storm Erosion for a long time so this will help. It will take me all winter to check all the spots !! Was thinking I should check today !!

We have bald face hornets and I make damn sure I stay away from their nests!

When I was in the Bahamas, sads669 is 10 feet in front of me in the jungle, and says look out boys theres a hornet nest ..... he got stung a bunch of times and barley even flinched !! Dude is a monster ..... nothing bothers him !!

Hey Bart. This is your stomping grounds..
(From Facebook).

Found in Florida! So one of the owners of a hotel, Judi was walking on the beach this morning cleaning up the junk that washed into shore and finds a bottle with a message in it. There is also some sand and 2 one dollar bills. Once we get it open and read the notes we find out that it is in fact NOT sand. It is the ashes of this woman's husband of 70 years named Gordon. She writes that He loved to travel so she sent him traveling in a bottle with a note and money for someone to call home and tell her where he landed. He started at Big Pine Key in March of 2012 and then went to Islamorada where someone found him.

They added a note and sent him traveling again and he landed on our beach in Key Colony. Judi called the wife in Tennessee who was excited to know of Gordon's travels! Judi added her note, we put him in a rum bottle (you know added a little fun to his trip) with the three notes. We added another dollar in case Gordon travels far and a long distance call is needed. We will be having a memorial service or celebration of his life on our beach later today before sending him on his way again."

Wonder where the hurricane sent gorden. I found a similar thing....it was a family who sent a message in a bottle. It had pictures and trinkets, and you were supposed to add something and throw it back to sea.....I took it fishing and let it go 20 miles off in the gulf stream !! I put a note with the find details, and added a plastic fishing worm !!
