:hello2: I'm sure it's not permanent yet, but there is a nice forecast for once. Warm, sunny, DRY days this week in the 70's and next week dry but cooler.
Too bad this weeks priority is mowing and yard clean up duties..... soon!....very soon I'll get to start playing in the water again.

Need to take a few more loads to the dump from cleaning out my garage O' stuff as well as my mom's. My step dad passed away this winter and man oh man was he a packrat.

My time is coming :laughing7:

oh and yeah, my mom was a packrat too. I got 30 days to empty, clean and sell my mom's travel trailer. :thumbsup:

The only place you need to dig in standing water is the river! LOL!

Condolences on the the passing of your stepfather. I lost mine also and he was the only father figure in my life and sure miss him, hope you had a good one also. I still spend some winter days reducing the pile of family history, go slow as what may look like junk could indeed be golden- John

Mike, you heading out this weekend to day any prospecting? I was thinking of heading out towards Ellensburg to snoop around a little, or maybe off to the coast to run some beach sand...I hope you get out!

I'd like to but still have some things to finish up before I can have guilt free fun. I'm thinking of the beach myself.
80* today and probably 40's and snow before I get another chance myself.

I did get out with my panning partner last week to check out a couple new and old spots to see what the winter rains did the the rivers. Got a few colors and that satisfied my fever for now.....or maybe intensified it.
