John Brooks Beach Near Low Tide Friday.


I wanted to get out a day or two ago but didn't.  So I did get out to take a look at a few beaches today.  Here is what I saw.


John Brooks Beach Near Low Tide Friday.


John Brooks was a lot different than it was last Sunday when there were five or foot cuts as far as I could see.  Those cuts only lasted a short time.  I think it was only one day, and then the winds shifted.


Walton Rocks Beach Near Low Tide Friday.


Walton Rocks also showed no new erosion.

A couple days ago, I mentioned the problem of the Minelab Equinox charging contacts getting corroded.  A couple people said a pencil eraser could be used to clean the contacts.  I tried that and it worked well.  It worked better than the contact cleaner I was using before.  I still want to protect the contacts from salt water as much as possible so that it doesn't need to be cleaned often so I still plan to use some method of covering the contacts when in the field.

Thanks to those who suggested using an eraser to clean the contacts.

He says the beginning of the fall of the FBI can be pegged to a specific moment in time. It came 3 days after 9/11. "In those 3 days, the FBI had managed to identify all nineteen 9/11 hijackers, their associates, and their connections to al Qaeda," Baker said.

It was remarkable police work, and FBI Director Robert Mueller was expecting to hear praise when he informed President George W. Bush.

Instead, Bush dismissively said to him, "'I don't care about any of that. I just want to know how you're going to prevent the next one.' Mueller was humiliated. He resolved after that encounter to change the FBI from a police organization to a domestic intelligence agency."

Then, just weeks later, Congress passed the USA/Patriot Act. The Patriot Act and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act or FISA – tools intended to fight terrorism – would be used against American citizens...

The surf is decreasing.  We are going to get a west wind, which I am hoping is going to blow some water out at low tide so I can get into some good areas.

Good hunting,
