Duckys Thread - Georgia Panning and Prospecting.

How exciting!! Congrats :)
 

CANCER FREE. We just got the body scan (PET scan) results back. There is no longer a growth in his lungs and he is 100% cancer free! We have another scan in 6 months to check again. What a blessing, he feels so much better without that chemo poison.

I wish I could like that twice. That's great news Ducky!!

Enjoy your extra time with your dad.
 

Thats great. Thats the news we wanted to hear.
 

That is just GREAT NEWS!!
 

Ducky what a great thing, a second chance to fulfill life and enjoy more time together. If it wasn't for all the care and help you provided him it may have been a different story. You truly are to be commended.
 

Great news Ducky! I've been a home health nurse to my mom since 1/25 and let me tell ya...it ain't easy. She's 89 and improving so it's all worth while. :headbang:
 

Well guys, They changed my shift to start work at 10am and finish at 6:30pm. I work from home and as Kevin knows, there is a great creek CLOSE by. After i get my kids to school and daycare, i can hit the creek for about 30 to 40 min. Going to try it tomorrow morning!!
 

Time to dig deep Ducky!!
 

Well, i should have just gone to the creek i knew that had gold in it. I went to a creek that i had shown kevin, much larger, and faster water. But no gold it seems. i dug a hole about a foot deep in large 4, 5 , and even 7" rock. NO GOLD.... Got a GREAT picture of the bazooka running though!

Hey guys! got out for about 30 min this morning! The water flow is 1000% better than last season. I could not really run my zooka last season. I was working a new quartz bar that must have deposited from the high floods we had this winter. Gold pics to come later today, i know i was on some so hurray for first gold of the season

First gold of the season in 30 min! I know it doesnt seem like much to you guys, but this is some of the biggest gold ive seen come out of my local creek. Usually this stuff is just -100 teeny tiny specs. But this stuff looks fresh and not tumbled.

Here is the pile and here is the without a doubt BIGGEST piece i have ever found in villa rica ga
 

Yes; several of those pieces are angular. Very nice for first gold of 2016 for you.

We are sitting in Winter Park baby-sitting the littlest one (3 1/2 years old) while the others ski. We got over 10 inches fresh powder last night and today, so it should be great skiing. Panning? Nope, just mark it white-out.

Ah, but great snow-melt stream flow in a couple days/week down here in the city will make it time to dig in my honey hole with the Prospector Dave! You coming?!!?
 

Love to do so! I need to get back from Spring Break (Winter Break in Winter Park??) and see what is on the calendar for the next week or so.
