diggit; You bet. Let me know if your going to be out here and we'll join up. If i get out your way i'd love to be shown around. I've always envyed the history there and the detecting possibilities. I've panned occasionally, and get some flake gold. Yes, you can pretty much ride year round here. If you get out to your people in Arizona, bring your detector. They do a lot of detecting for nuggets in the desert there, and are pretty successful. See ya later HH
