Reminiscing

I found these pics in a archived email from 2005. Eric my friend who passed a couple years ago took them at the claim( except the blue bowl pic). Figured I'd post them here where people can relate to the friendships and bonds that are created by looking for that elusive metal

Sorry to hear of your friends passing, I am sure the great memories are comforting...

Make new memories albeit a mite quieter and stealthier now low tone mufflers and camo rule the day--John

7 this year and 2 going fast right now.....the herd is thinning......... I drove over 2,500 miles to say good by to Geno and I'd do it again in a minute. Good mining buds are now few and far between as rules,regs and enviro bs rules the day as we fade to black or was that camo now? John
