Mike Furness Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Oh ... so that is why I never got my Christmas present from you! You could have at least sent me the smaller nugget! :yuk-yuk: Mike F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garimpo Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Don't tell me you haven't received it yet???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Dorado Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 You sent it to me by mistake! WHO? WHERE? SOLID? MOE INFO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garimpo Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Solid with just a sprinkle of dirt material in the poors...about 1/2" thick and approx. 2" across....he got it in the Eucalyptus trees...he and the guy with the 32 grammer weretogether....he wouldn't stick around long enough for pics usually because they owe the car owner a % and they know I don't tell stories like the gold buyer in town does...so don't tell anybody.... :zip-lip: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Furness Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 El D ... I'll send you my mailing address so you can send that misdirected nugget to the rightful owner! Hey Don ... you mean to tell me none of the locals know about this site! Don't tell anyone ... probably spread out across the world now! Ooops! Sounds like quite a nugget ... too bad no pics!Mike F.

garimpo Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Yea Mike everybody here knows about the site...most here beep there but the Eucalyptus tress coverabout half the state...the company keeps the roads in good shape...and you can get lost in therebig time...I've even tried making a copy of a area from Google Earth but the images are so oldand the company changes them fairly often so the maps are not that good...GPS your way in and out is the best way...

El Dorado Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Yup, I can attest to that...... place is big, if you can't see the sun you will get turned around easy. GPS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garimpo Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 Shep and Mike I'm glad El Dorado saved those pics of the Eucliptus tress..their the trashy ones....see how tough I have it!!!! The company that owns them also keep the roads in pretty good shape...here's a couple of the "clean" ones...I "think" the 200 grammer was found within 1 mile of these..

Mike Furness Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Hell Don ... That's a mere walk in the park! I thought you operated in a tropical or more jungle like environment! I didn't realize it was Brazil's version of NYC's Central Park! Mike F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Dorado Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Those trees were like a walk in the park, that is one reason why the area is so popular, you don't have to fight the jungle. It's just an easy area to get turned around in cause it is so friggin big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGTFDA Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Don, that was just a test to see if you had $10000. The small one to see if you had $1600. You rich Americans make a good target. :ph34r2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garimpo Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 When was the last time you were here Frank!!!! Let me know ahead of time in the future when your retired and rich and I'll sic'em on you.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGTFDA Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Don I won't go there. They have those bugs that bore into your Ahole and eat your brain (yes that's where my brain is). I refuse to wear a butt plug to keep the bugs out. I know all about it. I saw it on the television. If I did go there the locals won't get a cent out of me. The wife got to it first. Though I could come up with a couple bucks if she had those pointy boobs. :wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
