mn90403 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) I'm on a two day skunk with a broken truck (fuel pump/filter $800) in Quartzsite. Maybe better tomorrow.(I should have said I like those copper nuggets. Anything natural like that you can find with a detector are pretty cool.)

Roughwater51 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Enjoyed your post. Couldn't see your pic very well so I clicked on it and it brought up your profile but the pic didn't get any bigger. You look pretty good for being 99. Your profile about breaking things sounds much like my profile should If I were totally honest. Except instead of breaking things, it would be loosing things and in the process of trying to find what I lost originally, then loosing something else. I have a lot of left handed gloves, maybe the things I lost are at the same place all those right handed gloves got to?Anyway good luck on your gold and copper finds. Just find some bigger copper and it might not be so bad. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
