Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you to Digahole.

We have discovered a new way to prospect for gold here.
We melt down buckets of snow and leach the gold partical
that get traped in it when the water evaporates in the
summer time. If anyone would like to try it I have lots of
snow that I will share. Please remove from the driveway and sidewalk first.
