CaptGrumpy Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I sold my NF 14inch SL mono coil to a guy that is camped out for the long run out at Rye Patch so I decided to drive out for a day of nugget hunting on the invite and take the coil with me instead of shipping it. Guaranteed not to break the package UPS style this way!4 hour drive tonight and up early to chase the elusive nugget demon before the heat does me in and then a 4 hour returm flight. Maybe the GPX 4000 will track down the Au that the GP guys missed! Reports to follow tomorrow night.Rob, Call me tonight while I'm driving. I will have a nice order for the store!

shep Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 CaptGrumpy, check out the pizza parlor; look for an ugly one- Everert. He's been lost (he knows where he is). Tell him 'hi'. Gold's there, find some! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptGrumpy Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Definitely did not invest in the stale beer investment scheme at Rye Patch's pizza parlor! They don't take gold in trade so I didn't find any where I was looking! I hate when that happens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paseclipse Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Good luck out there Chris! I look forward to hunting with you this monday. BTW- I scored a copy of an old mineral map with a 1932 copyright date on it for the Sac area and I'm bringing it with me.Del Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shep Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Capt Grumpy, what do you mean they wouldn't take gold in trade. One of the little bartenders was showing us her collection of heart shaped gold nuggets. If you gave her one, bet you could get your beer at $1.75 a bottle.

CaptGrumpy Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Shep,The $1.75 beer was these old boxes with 6 cans with a Hamm's bear on them and for an additional $10 she would sell me this thing called a churchkey to open the cans with. I wasn't falling for it. Something told me this beer wasn't real fresh, no one else was drinking it. They were talking about a day when some guy walked in and they sold him 2 of those stale old six packs for the $3 a beer price. They lowered the price since then but they don't give the churchkey away for free any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
