Whenever I started trying to work the pan people just showed up looking to see how rich I was getting or not.

I went back there in 1998 and the area was about the same one store and not much else.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3169314107796334970.post-47277652426448466262013-12-14T20:00:25.634-06:002013-12-14T20:00:25.634-06:00I love to prospect for gold.

You can buy meat and fish cheaper than hunting or fishing for it. The same thing goes for my gold trophy.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3169314107796334970.post-77106100923052899632013-12-14T19:47:03.706-06:002013-12-14T19:47:03.706-06:00One thing about it, you got plenty of exercise!
