Good luck for the future

A word of warning for a young fellow such as yourself - I assume innocent as yet of the ways of the world - there is a difference in the types of crevicing - when crevicing for gold and you get the right spot in a crevice then you get the nice nugget but if another type of crevicing and you get the wrong spot in the crevice you tend to get the not so nice nugget so be careful
I got married to a girl who just loved gold mining and out in the wide open spaces UNTIL she married me and then I found out that it wasnt really her thing at all.

Seriously though I do hope things pan out as you want them to and a happy future lies ahead.
