Thanks, Ruth.

We certainly are living in “interesting times”. At my age (and yours), I would much prefer dull and boring.

Every time that I think I cannot possibly be more outraged.....I find that I can.

Mr. RR and I spent the day hiking in some of the draws near our property. We took the metal detector and gold pans, and actually found a few gold flakes on the banks of a creek near us. It was a nice break from the TV and computer. The bad thing was that it is May First, and it snowed on us! Gotta love that “globull” warming!

Yes, I am having the same experience, plus a big dose of “so why are you so upset, you saw it coming and no one would listen to me....”

A good dose of gold fever, is what I think you need.

Now to hurry back and see if you can find the mother lode, you can’t stop with a little dust.

I gave my sluice box to my nephew last week, there will not be another trip for me and he is without a job.

When Kendall was a young teen, we went almost every weekend about a 100 miles from here and looked for gold, he built our first one, from pieces of carpet, etc that we found in the dump, then after he moved on, I bought one with a gas motor, a Keene.

Hey that snow is just making water to wash the gold out of the stream with.
