Ok y'all. I'm up and running again. I met Steve and his boys up at Douglas Creek this weekend. I spent the first half of Saturday clearing a log jam that has been there for years. My cousin and I were using my 5" dredge (with a 3" ring welded on). We got about 5 hours of dredging in on Saturday, then another 3 hours or so on Sunday. That was the first time that I've even wet a pan since July 4th of 2015.

I did make it up to the Mayo Clinic....it was a wasted trip. They told me that there was nothing that they could do for me. So I'm just gonna keep on keeping on and praying that I don't have another attack.
The doctors here in Denver, removed the feeding tube 7/22/2016. No pain killers, no anesthesia, just pulled a 1" dia. disk out a 1/4" hole in my abdomen. Hurt like hell for a little bit. But all is well now. Even been using less insulin.

Glen, It's time to do some serious dredging. Give me a shout!

Thank you all for all of your prayers and well wishes.

You need to find a honey hole at Douglas Creek. That will make you feel better.

Trev that's good to hear anyway! Getting out ALWAYS made me feel better! How did you do with your 5 ? you should have seen some Chinese people with using that 5 w/a 3 inch ring!

Leonard,
I've never really got serious, dredging up at Douglas Creek. I've had my family with me every time I've gone, and like spending time with them, in the outdoors. A "honey hole" is something that has been elusive for me. Maybe one day.

Russ,
That 5" will suck the panties off a nun. Douglas creek overburden is only 4 to 5 foot in the places I've dredged. I hit bedrock on sunday, actually thought it was just another clay layer at first as I was using my blaster nozzle and it broke up just like clay (decomposed granite), until I noticed there were no longer cobbles or even small stones in it. I still dug about a foot deep into the bedrock before I started widening the hole.

My concentrates are still in a bucket in my garage. I haven't had time to even run them through my gold cube. I'll post the results when I get around to cleaning them up.
