Ethan Cord Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Cora and I had fun. I don't believe you were ditched. I think Glittery was fascinated with the Michael Jackson & George Hamilton exhibits of wester wear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Cord Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 It was fun and I got to meet Hardpan & Helen Brimstone. I also got to meet Curley Cole in person, although we had exchanged a number of PMs and talked on the phone. I think there a total of 19 ne'r do wells that showed up and a couple of them were snapping lots of pictures. Hopefully some will show up soon. I think Glittery is still there in the Western Movie section......... there was just so much for a B-Western fan to love! You know if he stands real still at closing time he will look like one of the great displays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things you might consider are the Getty Center, Norton Simon Museum, Museum of Natural History, Ronald Reagan Library, Nixon Library, and there are a bunch of botanical gardens. One other would be Calico Ghost Town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 Okay, here are the rules: 1. An eating place with room for 20-25 people, good food, reasonable prices, good selection, low noise, easy to get to, good parking, good service, and INDIVIDUAL CHECKS.. 2. A activity close to #1 that has reasonable prices,something most folks would like to see, reasonable prices, easy to get to, good parking, easy to get around in, and INDIVIDUAL TICKETS. 3. Somebody needs make sure of all of this and guarantee it beforehand. I'll check it out personally if I can, but may have to rely on others. 4. Finally, I'm not looking for lists. I'm looking for recommendations and details based on personal experience. In all honesty, I'm not really in favor of doing a lot of these. They get too complicated and tend to get away from the GLB idea, which is to have fun, eat with friends, and keep it inexpensive and simple. Maybe a couple of times a year. Look for SATURDAY, September 10th in Phelan. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Yup... Panning is always cool! 'Bout seven years ago I met some folks prospecting up on the Klamath. One fella had an acre or two on the hillside above the river, and on a whim one day decided to haul some water up the hill and try panning. Mind you, this was just property he'd bought years before as a "summer get-a-way" place. Welllll.... he was VERY surprised. When we met him a year or so after his first test pan he was harvesting several ounces a week. He'd even set up a small smelter and was casting buttons and mini-ingots... not bad for a hobby started on a whim! So Deja... did you find some color in your pan...?

Years ago I use to go out panning and hunting ghosts towns and mines with my brother. I was the only one who would ride with him in his 4 x 4 once he had his quota of booze. lol.. But then I am use to him.. Anyhow.. we did pan, and we did look for silver or gold veins in the shafts and mines in AZ.. I was asked once if I had found color.. And yes, I had. I found the color of fun in my life and nothing else mattered to me.. lol.. Sort of like meething you and Helen.. I found color, the color is gold because you two are so nice.. And that is how I see life.. Someone at an early age gave me rose colored glasses.. and I have worn them ever since.. lol.. You can pan, or sluish, or blast and find minerals.. most mines have more than one ... but most mines also are placered or someone has a claim there.. A good friend of mine in AZ was shot at about 40 years ago and his wife too over a claim.. Heck they just were looking for stray cattle.. lol.. course the guy with the claim was drunk.. lol.. He probably watched too many westerns is my guess.. Hmm so maybe metal detectors.. or something like that will fill out the future our Mr Hardpans and Miz Brimstone.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
