Misc data and adventures of a Tayopa treasure hunter

An old cowboy once told us that back in the day when one of them had stomach problems, their parents would ask them to fetch some horse apples. The "clean" inside was put in a small tobacco cloth pouch, and they made a curing tea with it. He said it was because the horses ate many different grasses, and herbs, and that was why it worked, but my guess is that it was the probiotics that did the trick.

MY OLDER BROTHER AND I LEARNED EARLY ON TO SELF DIAGNOSE AND MEDICATE. IF EITHER ONE OF US EVER ADMITTED TO HAVING A BELLY ACHE, WE BOTH GOT A BIG DOSE OF CASTER OIL. NASTY STUFF.

I just hope those good old days don't return anytime soon, since history tends to repeat itself, so they say.

Yep - no idea why that happens.

 

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

WELL, AT LEAST IT IS NOT JUST MY COMPUTER GOING BRAIN DEAD,YET!
MAYBE THEY CAN FIX IT ON THE OTHER END, AND WHILE THEY ARE AT IT, MAYBE THEY CAN PUT IN A "OH, I HATE TO HEAR THAT" OR "WOW, THAT IS CRAZY" BUTTON ON IT. SOME TIMES IT BOTHERS ME TO JUST HIT "LIKE" IT WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT SOMEBODY IS HAVING TROUBLES.

YOU KNOW, FOR WHEN SOMEBODY POSTS "MY MINE CAVED IN LAST NIGHT!" , I HATE TO HIT "LIKE", IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M HAPPY THAT BAD LUCK HAS TAKEN MORE THAN IT SHOULD HAVE.

WELL, THAT IS MY PRE-COFFEE RANT.
COFFEE IS READY. NOW. ANYONE WANT A CUP?

THANKS

SOMEONE WROTE THAT "WORDS DO NOT RULE THE WORLD, SIGNS RULE THE WORLD."
I THINK, COFFEE RULES THE WORLD. IF WE DO NOT HAVE COFFEE, THE WORK STOPS. THEN SIGNS WILL POINT THE WAY BACK TO COFFEE.

I POSTED THIS ON MY THREAD, EARLIER TODAY.... I THOUGHT I SHOULD SHARE HERE.
IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT ALL OF THE WRITING IS DONE.... THE STORY IS NOT FINISHED YET.

I AM MAKING MY FINAL EDITING.

RE-PURPOSING AND MODIFYING TOOLS FOR THE FINAL VISIT WITH THE MOUNTAIN. THE SMALL SPACE THAT I WILL BE WORKING WILL REQUIRE REDUSEING THE SIZE OF MY TOOLS.

YES! I AM GOING BACK ONE MORE TIME. IT MAY TAKE ME A LITTLE TIME, BUT HAVING A LIST OF "MUST DO", AND THE TOOLS TO DO THE WORK, WILL TAKE TIME.


THE ENCOURAGEMENT AND DEMAND FOR FINISHING, AND A FEW OTHER THINGS ARE PUSHING ME ONWARD.

THANKS
MIKEL
