Pics from the trip

[Jeffro]

Oh boy, this is gonna take me a couple days to get done- I gotta work at 5 am and I still need to unpack.

Jack and Lisa and their children were some of the nicest people I've met, glad they could join in.... I had as much fun showing them around as I think they did, if that makes any sense, LOL!

Here's a couple pics of some nuggies the kids found,
a bottle of whiskey found (never cracked!),
and a friendly river otter who showed up on my old claim.
I'll be back Monday with more, and a few stories to tell...

Cool pix. Wish I could have joined you. Looks like the weather cooperated. So when is your next trip planned? LOL Quick, before gas reaches $5/gallon!

We had a blast!
This ole' gal out walked her teenagers . We all went walking Friday and of course it was 1 mile down hill and 4 miles up hill, tee hee. Saturday morning all I hear is "MOM, my legs hurt! Mom my back hurts! Mom where's the asprin!" Of course you are only hearing one side of the story . Memories are what it is all about, & we have a boat-load full of them. Thanks Jeff for letting us tag along.

Day 1-

We started off panning at the original meeting spot. This area produces lots of flour gold, a few flakes, and occasionally a picker piece or two. We never struck it rich but we had fun-

Jack and the boys trying out the sluices-



Here's Charlie with a nice flake he found-


And Pat panning out some flour-

See ya soon

looks like a fun place- getting together with others is great fun- used to horseback/trail ride and it was fun too. wish I had had my md then- what a trip that would have been

please let me know about the next trip- not sure I can go but really want to try. maybe up by newport on the beach or something?

I would have LOVED to have been there....I was, however having massive tests on my heart. It seems as though I had an infection attacking the heart valves and causing me a great deal of discomfort. It is going to take a bit, but I'm hoping the biggest part is over and done with.

I am SO happy that you all had a wonderful time. Maybe I can make the next one?

Nice seeing a bit of gold in those pans!

Anytime! Next trip won't be for a bit as I have to get my vacation time built back up, unless you're available Mon-thurs. I'm thinking of hitting the Champion area next, probably several times. May make a trip down south shortly too.

Doggone Nash, your spring is shaping up like my winter. Doctors orders, no more medical problems!

Well they say things come in 3s' right? I think I have had MY three this year....knock on wood. We have plenty of time left this year and one of these days I WILL be down there. I go every dang year. Funny thing is, we may have crossed paths. I know that on more than one occasion I have sat and lunched with someone who dropped in on camp or wherever I may have been at the time....more than likely up to my waist in muck and water, shovel in hand sluicin' away.

I am going to try and get out for a few minutes today and swing on the beach and maybe a local park or two.

Thanks for posting all of the pics of the outting. I really enjoyed them!

looks like everyone had fun I'll have to make it out next time

 

[Cynangyl]

Us too I hope!

 

[Leeame]

We are still talking about it! It was the only good weather so far this spring, or so it seems. We had our nuggets out tonight, ooh-ing and ahh-ing over them with the jewelers loop.

Son, Patrick, is out scouting us some areas to claim today and tomorrow. Hope he finds something worthwhile. Folks, next time, we'll ALL have a good time.

BTW Nash, get that ole' ticker healed up. Looking forward to meeting you.
