No, sorry to say I didn't know them. And KENT, I have been thinking about how to respond to your "sounds like fun" qoute. When you have done as much as I have, it's more like a habit than fun. Anything to do with gold is hard work. Panning, dredging, slucing, drywashing or metal detecting. To do it successfully it is just plain hard work. Because gold, brass and lead all look about the same to a gold metal detector. So you have to dig hundreds, maybe thousands of them for every nugget you find. You have to bury or cover back up every whole you dig. Your whole body is hurting at the end of the day. It is awesome when you find something good. Hence the habbit. But fun???
I had a lot more fun this winter ice fishing, then the last 3 or 4 years spent metal detecting for gold in Arizona.
But that and my other outdoor recreation is why l look like I'm closer to 45 than my real age of 65. I'm getting gold fever again now the ground is thawing out.
