Hey guys!
Board & going through stuff organizing looking for aditional show pics for another thread when I stumbled on these and thought you guys might like them. If you're as board as me at the moment!
We had just left bankrupt court with nothing but our house and Darts.
We usually travel in nice camper, cummins Ram, both dogs, You know high on the hog. But after job loss and court, here's the vacation we had.
No camper, credit, Ram, Dogs, kids, worries, money.........
Had to be one of the best weeks we ever spent on vacation together!
ABodyBetty had fun too! Mostly just lounged & worked the creeks!
Here ya go for you viewing pleasure, the lowest budget vacation ever. Gone a week, spent less than $500.00 total!
Good Times! I came home with change and about 300 lbs of black sands I still have to pan at home!8)
While we were there a 4 epedition caravan showed up from Purdue & Indiana State, US geological Survey & others for a lecture on gold panning! (using me as example on how to pan but not how to dress! Could have been the floating cooler of beer tied to my lawn chair!)
I went up to see what was going on while they were unloading. Shot the shtuff and watched all of em start swatting themselves & whinning about the bugs. 6 of em round me. I ask them, "you know whats good round here for those bugs aeatin ya?"
They are all ears at this point and one of them says "No what"
I pull out a can of Off and ask, "Any of you professors want any from this Hi Scool Grad-U-Ate?
They all started bustin laughin' and passin round the can of Off (this boy scout had another can nin back of Baby!
They ended up let us sitting in and giving us all the paperwork/materials for the course with geological survey maps and everything!
What a Vacation!!:cheers:
We're going back! 2010!!!
