I get it Doc , I just bought your multi sluice consentrator and river sluice today . I just can't wait to see them !!! I'm looking forward to a little warmer weather , in New England .

I have to agree Doc. Not everyone gets it. I don't care if you're dredging in Georgia, sluicing in the Mother Lode country, or detecting in the wide open desert spaces, just getting away from all those that don't get it is something special to those of us that do. We'll let them keep the phone attached to their ear, pack themselves into elevators, or play bumper cars on the freeways. (From what I've been seeing on the news, they've got the last one down pat in phoenix!)

going to be in the 50's here tomorrow, but I can't get my truck up to the barn to load my stuff, too muddy.

You clearly need more tailings to cover that mud!

Doc,

You've revealed the "why" to it all; that's something some people really never do figure out.

Thanks for the picture of some place warm, with running water, and sunshine . . . It'll be a while for me.

All the best,

Lanny

Might just have to hook the dump cart on my tractor, and bring my stuff to the truck. That can work.

Those that don't get it just don't know how to enjoy LIFE!

Gorgeous pic Doc. I get it.

There are few if any things I enjoy more than being up there in my favorite gold area. I mean sure I like it anywhere I can play in the woods and collect shiny things but way up in the cascades, that is my paradise.

I tell my wife it's in our DNA, Digging in the dirt, playing in the water, And not getting yelled at!
