Haven't had much luck detecting the Fl beaches in the past few months, but have enjoyed the sunsets.
Made a run out to a well know beach for shark teeth hunting the other day, and you could tell that summer vacation has kicked in. Since the beach was so crowded, we decided to hunt for shark teeth with the wife, until the beached cleared out around dinner time. So while scooping for teeth, we kept scanning the beach to see where people hung out. Then, that magic hour approached where it's like the dinner bell rings, and people head out. That's when the Sea Hunter gets fired up. On our second signal, a nice silver cross came out of the sand, but that was about it. Once again we did our part in cleaning up the beaches. Happy hunting all.

Being from the Pacific Northwest I never think of Florida as having ocean sunsets. Duh. I guess about half the state gets to see that. Nice little cross but I'm really liking the teeth.

Yes, I would say that's exactly right Donald. Half of getting out and digging is getting out and enjoying your site, whether it be a cellar hole, old battle ground or the beach.

Since moving down here a year and a half ago, the misses and I have dug up about 1500 teeth, and still enjoy it. But when your out detecting and get to see some awesome blood red sunsets, well life dong get much better than than. Good hunting to ya.

Thanks Don. Normally my wife and I are on a beach some where every weekend, and if we are out until sunset, 9 times out of 10, they are spectacular. Now, if I can just start locating some GOLD. :detecting:

Thanks Drew. That wave crashing was the wife's favorite, plus she took that pic. :hystericallaugh:
The storms brew all that day, but never got us. I was just showing how the beach emptied out before I started detecting. Hey, like your tooth collection too :thumbsup02:

sounds like a great place to hunt Donald. My brothers lives on the edge of the Chancellorsville Battle Field there in Fredrichburg. I took my detector once for an hour hunt and found a mini ball in his driveway. I need to make another trip back up there. Good hunting to ya
