Admin nuggethunting Posted March 9, 2011 Admin Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hey Paul, Wishing you much success in Greaterville. I told Justin about a spot or two where I found some nuggets, so maybe you guys can turn up a few nuggets, maybe a biggie. Hoping to get back down that direction this year before the Winter ends. Talk with you later,Rob Allison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
