I consider couple grams plus a good day, anything less is an "OK" day. Had a 1/4 oz clean out once which was fu(k1ng great. I sometimes get shut out like everyone else. Cold beer and a few shots always make for a "good" night back at camp.

I’m happy with a gram a day, but a “day” for me is actually a morning. I’m back home by noon because my wife works too and I have a toddler. Great mornings for me are 1.5+ grams in 2.5 hours of sprint shoveling 640 scoops, which is two cubic yards.
