We should be there Saturday afternoon. I've been looking for a dredge with air for a reasonable price, but as of right now, it's just my highbanker/dredge combo again. Even that wouldn't be to awful bad if I could find a hooka rig to buy.

I haven't gone through the concentrates Russ and I split :) , but the gold is small. Mark - you sure didn't sleep that well :( . Hope your trip to check out your property went well. The drive home on Labor Day wasn't all that bad. Russ, you're correct that Carl has moved? Where to, I'm not sure.

Russ usually was first up :D , and had the coffee ready, except for the morning it was 38 outside :o - he didn't want to leave that warm bed! :lol: We didn't hit the river till the sun had warmed up. As far as putting out the fire, we only had a couple cause the wind was pretty heavy in the evening, and if I remember the first fire died out, and the second one I put out. Russ had already stumbled to bed, the river wore him out. ;)
