Coin Shooting Morning of August 24, 2010...

I was driving to the beach this morning, spotted 3 deer feeding on the side of the road as I slowed down the car noise caused them to look up at me, a beautiful sight. In this town you can come across areas with deer, last year I saw one running across someones front yard.
Last week at the beach, I talked with a lady nicknamed the "Purple Lady" for she wears purple all the time. She told me that she collects pull tabs for "MS" I told her that I had alot and that she could have them (I have no use for them), she told me who to drop them off to an old gentleman that always sits at the beach, he will give them to her (saw him there many times). I took the bag in today, when I walked up to see if he was the person I spotted a penny on the sidewalk.
Searched a little over an hour the Totlot and some of the grassy area.

Coin Shooting at Beach/Park was very Cold and Windy...

This morning I went to the beach to do some coin shooting for a couple of hours. Didn't hit the playground not many kids playing there now, but did the park/picnic area around the trees. Got a lot of target hits but didn't dig everything for the pull tabs and bottle/beer caps are everywhere, when the ACE 250 had a sure coin tone I did dig, some were (large) bottle caps they seem to mimic quarters. One area had many coins scattered together including 2 quarters next to each other on top of the soil, must of been a pocket spill. Also found a child's charm design is of a Sun...
