Gimme a couple of weeks and I'll tell the story of the recovery, which was an adventure in and of itself.

Sadly, I have no photos of Goliath on the sandbar. I did not carry a cell phone hunting with me back then. While 2 of the photos might appear somewhat sandbar like, they are from behind my shop. In the photo with me in it, I had cleaned myself up a bit and put on a hat. Wish now I'd of took the photos as I was.

I’m back! Been out of touch longer than I expected. I’ll begin the recovery story tomorrow hopefully.
