Gold prospecting using a metal detector
Lesgold:
Hi Phillip.
Haven?t seen a water spout for quite a few years. They do occur from time to time. Yes, it is a beautiful part of the coastline. Haven?t been to this beach in years. Pretty lucky to have this type of country close to home.

Not much was found but I was lucky enough to almost step onto a 7 foot diamond python sunning itself on the sand. Wish I had my phone with me to snap a shot. About 20 minutes later I was looking at a storm brewing out to sea. A water spout formed as I was watching. Raced back to the car to grab the phone but it had diminished considerably before I could take the shot.
It died and reformed about 15 minutes later. What an amazing thing to see.

Wow! Amazing! I guess there are many different kinds of treasures to be found at the beach. :happy:

Good question!
Lesgold:
Went away for a few weeks towing the caravan. Stopped for 7 days in a location that was once mined for small gold. Was lucky enough to find a few pieces with the detector. This is what I found on the first day.
The sunsets in the dry country are spectacular. Sitting outside with a glass of red wine as the sun goes down is a tough job but some one has to do it.
Cheers
Les
