What a GREAT show, The rain held off and there was some great samples. Gerri and I got to see Dan, Denise, Mike and the ever active Timmy. Man I wish I had his energy! It sure was great seeing everyone. I hear we are going to try to get to the Arkansas and see Joe Mann next weekend

We went to the one at the Jeffco Fairgrounds. It was cool. Got to see Dave and Joe and Jack and a whole bunch of old friends. Thanks for the link! We always get stuff in the mail, but sometimes we misplace it or throw it away or the ghost takes it.......
the link is handy. Hopefully we'll hook-up at a show sometime soon! Todd -------------------- Proud Member <span style='font-size:10pt;line-height:100%'>Treasure Hunters of America</span> Proud Sponser

Anything coming up?

There is a show in Weld county coming up Coalbunny.
Just click on the calendar link at the top of the forum page, or the bottom of the forum front page in the coming events listings. This link to Rock N Gem also has shows listed all over the country for the year, periodically they'll add more as they are notified of the new ones too.

It seems that RocknGem did a little website changing, so the links I posted were broken.....
But dont worry, I have gone in and edited the links in the posts fixing them. I also added a few more upcoming events for Colorado next year.

I went to the BV show yesterday, it just a short bike ride from the house, so figured why not. I needed a new scale as I had drowned my old one the first week of diggin' this season. Got one from paydirt Jonny :)
Sad thing is I found out how little gold I'd recovered ( .06 g ) :(:(:( in 6 weeks of work. Time to find somewhere better to dig as snow will be flying soon -------------------- I want nuggets

Great, I hope you had a good time and glad you found a new scale. I'm sure you wil find a new spot to dig soon, Colorado has many great gold spot just waiting to be dug up.
Good luck and stay safe in your prospecting adventures. -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

We won't be able to make this show EMac but it does sound like it's going to be a good one.
 I think Mike and Dave were going to try and make it though. Can even get some minerals identified there too!
