I'll call you. Maybe we can travel there together. It will slow you down but I'll do my best to keep up.

It looks like Ed and I will come down to pick you and the Mrs up on the 30th so you won't have to ride in the back of my truck. Also, he has air conditioning which is a big deal the last few days here. It's supposed to be about 98 degrees here today. I'm looking forward to the Douglas Creek cool weather.

Got to add a few pictures!

Hi all I should be there with my partner Tonto Friday the 2nd, but will be leaving the 9th. We are planning on staying at the Bobby Thompson camp ground I think it is called as we are tent camping, and there is a one holer and water. It will be nice to finaly meet some of you that I have chatted with on diffrent fourms after all these years. I think I have only met Russ so far.
Hey zooka remember that 49er sluice project? on the slick plate I engraved a image of a drawing called "the prospector" Well i'm doing one on marble for a free drawing. Is there a night that is set up for a gathering?.

I'm not sure which one you are refering? I still have all of the claims I've ever had but I've never had one named that.
