Stopped by Sutter's Mill today


Recommended Posts

Weather is looking nice for awhile here in Mother Lode country.

Drove thru Placerville and stopped at Marshall Gold Discovery park.

Here's a pic of gold in museum. If you hit Next there's Chata & I in front of Sutter's Mill replica.

PHOTO HERE

In a motel til Wednesday - then may camp and prospect at some area sites.

If you're in the neighborhood and wanna head out together or just have coffee, lemme know! B)

Great photos Kelly! Here is a shot of Sutter's Saw Mill taken by John McCain, on his vacation some years ago :lol: Terry

Terry,

Cool that Senator McCain shared that photo with you.

Did he mention being a POW? ;)

Highbanker,

Found the first nug straightaway (under adult supervision) but none on my own, so far.

First Nug Post

Course, I spend more time driving and goofin around then beeping, but we're having fun.

May get more serious now that I'm in Mother Lode country :)

He is actually a really nice guy. I had two small children and was working two jobs and going to Maricopa County Community College way back in the day. The Government was three-checks behind on my VA School bennies, and I was starting to hurt financially. One call to Senator McCain's office, and my check arrived within 48-hours. Yeah, I know he was a POW, but he IS ancient! :rolleyes: - Terry
