    ALL RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

    Who turned the dang heaters off, even the Key birds were on the fence today, saying Key Key Keyrist it's cold out here. Got down to about 12 below and down the road a peice was 31 below, Now that makes for hard digging, even keeps one from getting out and about. Guess it's time to gather up the...

    Follow the Hoe in the Snow

    I guess I'm fortunate in that I have a chance to follow a digging operation. Even when it gets cold and snows these guys keep a digging. They don't have time to shut down and check to see what is being lost. They clean to the paylayer and then take the paylayer and about 2 feet under it. There...

    but I got out and that was the main thing, forgot my pain pills so it was a little tough on the legs, but I got back into a hole that I got some pickers from before. Been working this old limestone pocket that has some good indicators but today wasn't the day but it was good to get out and get...

    One final get together

    When the last little rain came thru it brought some water back to the creek which in turn brought a group of friends together for a final fling of the fall. The weather was great, the gold was scarce and at the end of the day there was a chili feed in which everyone brought their favorite chili...

Well after a 2 1/2 hr drive I arrived at the place that I have permission to...

    If one could only

    If one could only go back in time to some of these old mining areas, just to watch. I came across this frame of a vehicle and wondered why it was there. Was it left there as I found it or was it whole, was the motor used as a power plant, if so why not the gas tank. Or did some young haples...

    Man O' Man

    I'm not sure I showed you folks this piece before. A friend of mine got it in his placer operation and I took it home to clean up in the ultrasonic for him. I don't think this moved very far from the source.Whether this came right from the top of the source, the side or wherever, they were...

    Picked up some wallet gold

    A few weeks back I had a chance to acquire some nice wallet gold from N. Idaho. I like this size as it makes nice pendant pieces and keeps the price within reason. These 6 pieces weighed 27.7 grams. These were small enough to just do the bails and not completely wrap them as on past pieces. The...

    Some of our pretty's

    Here are some of the sapphires that we have had cut (faceted) over time. All of these come from either Gem Mountain, Lovestone or Spokane Bar Sapphire mines here in MT. We don't do as much as we (me and my wife) used to, but we still get out and about once a year. And there are times when that...

    Off Topic, but I have a question

    How does one get a free credit report without giving a credit card number, Thought I would check my credit score, but found that I have to order it and pay with a credit card which gives me a 30 day free trial and then will be charged per month unless I call during the 30 day period and cancel...
