[Sierra Kid]

Here are some more pics from the California high desert. On pic is from the inside of an abandoned miners cabin. Another is from a Post Office built in the 1930's to serve the miners. Believe me, its in the middle of nowhere!

Awesome! love them all....the cabin and post office are neat and all would be fun to explore! thanks for the trip!

 

[Sierra Kid]

Glad you guys like them. I'll be sure to bring my camera on my next adventure and get some pics. Cork

 

[Cynangyl]

Sweeeeet! We just LOVE goin on trips with folks and you are sure covering some great areas!

YAY!! We get to go more guys!!

 

[Sierra Kid]

LOL. You should check out the Mojave. You will love it!

 

[Cynangyl]

I already love it with all the trips we have taken with Hoss on here and your trips too. Actually the terrain and such is very similar to where I live in the high desert of Central Oregon. I still want to go see the Mojave first hand someday though! Until then you and Hoss can keep takin us on trips!

 

[Sierra Kid]

Central Oregon sounds neat. There must be some good places to prospect!

 

[Cynangyl]

Actually there are some good spots to prospect real close by and of course it is a pretty short drive to some of the best prospecting places around but some here as well. There are also great places to go rockhounding, camping, fishing and just about any outdoor activity you can think of. We have a lot of ghost towns and interesting history around here. I am just now starting to research a lot of it and finding out a lot I did not know even though I was pretty much raised in this area. I was astounded at the amount of ghost towns within a half hour drive of where I live. I am going to have a BLAST this summer now that I have a job where I actually get some time off! lol

 

[Sierra Kid]

Wow! Sounds great. I love to do the research associated with exploring/prospecting. One of my haunts is the BLM office (great maps and on site Geologists) and the local library.

 

[Cynangyl]

Our local library is awesome and we have a pretty incredible museum....the library had a few books that the historical society published from all the old diaries and newspapers at the museum and I have been enjoying them a LOT!

 

[Sierra Kid]

Awesome! Go find that cache!

 

[Cynangyl]

Bah! It is supposed to start snowing again tonight! I got two more days to work so I will be shoveling that white excrement then coming in and thawing out again! lol More time to research things though!

 

[Sierra Kid]

Hahaha. I hate snow. I left N.J. 24 years ago and have loved the west coast sun ever since.

 

[Cynangyl]

Oh I love snow....as long as it stays up there on the mountain where it belongs! lol I admit it, I am a cold weather wimp! I do love the sun and the scenery here in the high desert though!
