Good afternoon. Just got back from the eye surgeon ( The Princess had cataract surgery on her left eye.) and brewed a pot of coffee. Help me drink it, please.

You can't run mining equipment in that weather!Good morning, cafe. Thanks for the coffee, DL. Sorry you don't get to enjoy the nice day.
A whopping 8°f (-13°c) this morning! Brrski. Had 6" of snow when I got up yesterday morning, but quite a bit melted off. I was happy to see dry roads when I headed home. Headed for 50's this weekend and another storm next week. And the time change...ugh.
But it was pretty yesterday:

Happy Wednesday to you all.
Took me a minute to figure out what you meant. Excavation equipment It has been used for mining, though!You can't run mining equipment in that weather!
I watched a series on Discovery channel about Australian Opal hunters. It was very entertaining.Took me a minute to figure out what you meant. Excavation equipment It has been used for mining, though!
Fun fact: A number of years ago when we were mining for sapphires, we had a camera crew following us around to do a show based on us and the other miners in the area. The whole pilot and everything was done and then an Asian company bought out AMC (?) and killed it. It was Gold Rush with sapphires, basically.
Thank G it never came to fruition. Those shows are absurd. But it was an interesting time, anyway!
I always like to see what they find. Gobs of gold, that'd be so fun. We used to gold pan a lot when we were kids. Pa still wants to find a placer claim to buy one of these days.I watched a series on Discovery channel about Australian Opal hunters. It was very entertaining.

You might still have gold under the tailings pile!I always like to see what they find. Gobs of gold, that'd be so fun. We used to gold pan a lot when we were kids. Pa still wants to find a placer claim to buy one of these days.
A dredge went through our property many moons ago and they found big nuggets. My husband screened all the rock left behind a couple of years ago and used or sold it. One of the neighbors had a picture of the dredge at our place. It's pretty neat!
