A three-thousand-year-old leather bag of jewelry was found by archaeologists.

The treasure itself consists of jewelry of Bronze spirals and tin funnel-shaped hangers that were probably put into the ground in a leather package with three Bronze disk-like objects sewed to the top. The remains of organic leather material that is about 3000 years old were kept between them and the jewelry...

The funeral of George Herbert Walked Bush was a time for reflection.  It was something I think our country needed as the political leaders from both sides came together to honor an exemplary life.  It was a time for everybody to step back and gain some perspective.  I'm sure it won't have any huge long-term impact, but I am hoping that people on both sides learned something.  If they don't, it is not the fault of the Bushes or any of the speakers, each of which provided plenty of food for thought.

I was especially impressed by the Presidential historian, Jon Meacham.  Too bad everybody doesn't have a personal historian.  Georg H. W. Bush's story is exceptional, but everybody has a story.

Many people don't know their own story.  Maybe they've never thought about it, and they haven't taken the time to step back and get the larger picture.  It is worth considering.

Each person's story consists of more than the things they did and the things that happened to them.    There is a theme, and plots and subplots.   Introspection, analysis and insight is required.  There is psychological element and interpretation.

Personal stories are part fiction and part fact.  They are often influenced by family stories, such as grandpa was the toughest man in the county, or grandma as a great musician that was descended from royalty, or you come from a long line of achievers, or great great grandpa was a slave brought here from Africa.

Those stories might or might not be entirely true.  Often they have some basis in fact but are not entirely accurate.   But true or not, they can become part of each family members personal story.

How would you describe yourself?  How do you want your children to see themselves?  Think about it.  You might not have someone like Jon Meacham to tell your story, but if you think about it, you will discover that you are developing a story worth passing on.

Yesterday I incorrectly referred to the EM61 as a GPR system.  When I watched the TV show I didn't catch the full name of the system.  It is actually a metal detector.

I made corrections to my references in yesterday's post and provided a link for more information about the EM61.  Here is the link to information about the EM61.

I once had a book, I think it was by Frank Hudson, that had a list of pirate treasure signs and symbols in it.  I couldn't find it so went looking for it online.  I didn't find it, but I did find a document detailing pages of treasure signs.

The symbols shown at the top of this post are from that document.

This is the largest list of treasure signs that I've seen compiled.  I know the same symbols can be found in other less extensive sources.

It looks like the Treasure Coast surf will remain small for a few days.  According to the MagicSeaWeed predictions, there is the possibility of a bigger surf in about a week.

We've had a few days of north wind, and I suspect there will be a few small insignificant cuts on the beaches.

Happy hunting,
