pondmn Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Talk about a birthday for a prince of a gentleman. Hope you have a really good one and have all the grandkids over. Isn't this the big 80. Enjoy your birthday, you have sure earned it. We all look up to you for more information on gold that seems exhaustless.

dutch john Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 GOsh... I just opened my ol' dialup and typing with two fingers... slowly.Happy Birthday Hendo...Yep... It is now my 80th. My backtrail is long and winding. (Chris, I was one of guys 40 years ago using a BFO in the mineral setting seeking concentations of metal. But I'm looking foreward to the trail ahead). Actually my first class was in 1969. I taught in various school districts, Fontana, Rialto, and even UC Riverside campus. Grubstake andI even shared the same students... several were in both our classes over the years... I will have a booth at the Lancaster GPAA goldshow... It will be next to Pedersen's Metal detectors whose store is in Santa Ana. Please, everyone, plan on stoping by giving me shout... I will have all three of Dr. Erik Melchiorres books. You are most welcome to look my copies over and see all at the great information within... Chris Cholson was one of the co-authors in the first book and Rob Allison was involved in the third...I will have a map to display, based on the Wheeler Survey. It is certainly wiorthlooking at.Lt. Wheeler was one of the pathfinders (topographical engineer as was Lt. Fremont).I will have complementary issues of several "treasure magazines" to handout. Lost Treasure(As you know Chris Gholson is one of their field and column editors). I will also have copies of Western & Eastern magazine too... Sorry about the typos... my program is now dated...
