Default Puff the Golden Dragen

While waiting & waiting for John & Tonya to show at this place 7mi. west of Leonora Western Australia. They were a no show but Puff the golden Dragon did. Found him & 2 nuggets & a specie, Just below a quartz blow on the crest of this hill. So it was not a complete waste of time.,,,, chuck,tx.

Default Thanks Guys

I live S E of Dallas Dallas,TX. I made 2 prospecting trips,To AU. 6mo. each trip.
Paid for my trips & adventure with gold that I found, But not much more. That is OK, For I could never stand prosperity, Too much money in my pocket allways got me in trouble :-)
I hunt with a 2200 Mine Lab detector.,,,,,,,, chuck,Tx.
Image is of me at the Trigo MT's in AZ. With a Mine Lab 2100 with an 18" COIL.
