We left Monday evening and made it as far as Ely where we lost a tire on the trailer, so we spent the night in Ely and bought a new tire first thing in the morning and headed on.
Got in here last night after dark and got the trailer moved over to the spot, unloaded all day today and started getting things set up.
Going rock hounding with Lowell and Christopher tomorrow, oughta be loads of fun!
Happy New Year everyone!

Since Christopher likes to dig, you guys are going to the right spots. Make sure you take plenty of pictures. We'll be in Q on Wednesday.

Bummer on the tire, as least it was minor. I missed you on Tuesday, left some grape fruit for you with Ralph and Maryann. See you in a few weeks.

Had a blast with Lowell and Christopher today and got a sunburn while out hiking around and digging. Lowell took the pics so we have to wait till he posts some.
Tim,
Thanks for the grapefruit, they are great!
I will look for a nice piece to set aside for you tomorrow.
Stu,
It got here today, Thanks!
Check your mail, it should be there any day now.
Happy New Year everyone!

Funny you should say something Tony, I got back to the motel and within a few minutes of washing my face I started felling the heat. Went to check it out in the mirror and my face was glowing red

Of everything, it was the stories on this trip I enjoyed hearing. Tony has a fun one about crossing state lines with grapefruit and I can't wait to hit up Christopher and see what's up by Last Chance Canyon...
Pictures posted soon...
