Not sure if it's a waste of space to bring my 3" Proline highbanker combo unit or not. Any thoughts or comments? I understand liquid refreshment is of great importance. Is there any particular brand I should bring, as this is my first time out?

should be plenty of room for your equipment! any types will be consumed! Leonard is kinda particular to Wild Turkey but ive never seen him turn down a taste or two of anything except for budwizer beer.


I'm driving a 2008 Subaru wagon, and I've never packed light for any trip, that why I mentioned possibly not bringing my combo unit. There should be a fair number of dredges, as I understand this will be the best method of getting the gold, do I should make a good dredge tender for someone. Just need to learn how to do things properly. I'll be sure to bring several cases of Bud, this way I won't have to worry about him drinking it all. Back in the 60's I would have brought Coors, as it was pretty difficult to find it other than Colorado.

The day we all arrive there will, I'm sure, be a gathering in which all kinds of catching up will be done, camps set up, etc. Then, it will be time to sit around the fire and talk, and naturally, liquid refreshment will be consumed in great quantities. Will anyone feel like dredging the next day?

Life isn't worth living if you can't have fun, but being responsible is a way of life
