Russ, here's my plan.... Arrive in Denver a couple of days before the rally... stay for the Rally... then go North to leonards claims for the remainder of 2 weeks... Have fun and meet some new and old friends... Oh yeah, and maybe get some gold to bring back to FL.

gene, thats kinda like my plan(2 weeks) if the dates lineup with my wifes plans!!she is taking a colledge class in colorado springs some time in aug. im not sure of her time frame. i want to hookup with mark in that time also!i would like to be at the rally site before and after the rally to help out whatever needs to be done. kinda like we did in georgia! but without the mud!! and no rubber gates!!:):)

Russ, cool.... I'll be there to help out as well... but this time I ain't gonna pinch a nerve... I will not be shoveling two tons of fill dirt/rocks for the vendor area. I'm still not completely over that episode..

After the rally, I'm gonna spend some time with Ed and Leonard on their claims. I look forward to seeing everyone and meeting a bunch of new people.

Promise there will be no heavy manual labor like back filling...... :P
If there is I will make sure we have a tractor, or Denise can do the shoveling.
Can't wait to meet everyone, it will be great fun!

hey dan, can i be a supervisor?? i use to work for the highway deptment!! i can lean on a shovel better than most of these youngsters!!!:):)

There's a little problem with your plan Geno. The claims are more like south west. Other than that, it sounds like a good plan. I'll have the dredge ready!

Leonard...crap, ya mean I gotta make a couple of left hand turns?...geez... i guess it'll just take me a little longer to get there.

Did someone say they wanted to know about camping ......... :o :D B)
