    A Blast From The Past

    Is Ernesto still around? Haven't heard from him in a while. That's a lot of years Daris. I'll bet your knees and back didn't argue your decision. Also, did I hear right that our friend John from New Zealand is no longer with us? Saw him at the Vegas show several years back. Quite the character.

    A Blast From The Past

    Good morning Daris. Yes we're still running the mine, but it's up at 5000' and generally have to wait till around the end of May for the snow to melt to get in there. In the mean time, I look for the elusive stuff with my Minelab 6000 detector. Found three of these this winter. We've got 4...

    A Blast From The Past

    Howdy to all. I was out in the shop this morning trying to find something and look what I found instead. A nice surprise. Wasn't it Nick that made the cups? Sure do miss that guy. Don't know about the hats. Anyway, it brought back some great memories of folks, some not with us anymore...

    All Locked Up

    Boy, you got me there. At least 10 years. The show was pretty awesome, though a pretty crazy town. Howdy Daris. Just curious if Stephen from Arizona still visits here?

    Thanks for the responce. I tried running Malwarebites and like everything else, it won't let me. I will try the PC Unblocker though and report back. Thanks again.

    All Locked Up

    Hey there Jon. Mining is only from around May through Nov due to snow. Besides mining we get time to do fun stuff like build our own lookout tower and last summer our own saloon. :) Also, a shot from my cabin. Nearest neighbor is about 10 miles away. A town called Sawyers Bar. Population about...

    All Locked Up

    Good morning everybody. Yep, it's been a long time. Still not getting back on my knees for flooring. For mining...yes. :) Anyway, I've been trying to help a friend with a pc that seems to have pretty much locked up. It's Win 10 and you can NOT use Settings, the start button, which means you...

    Nick Arrera

    I just found this out via Highup. An incredibly sad day for me. I have known that amazing person for so many years and have learned most of what I know about confusers from him. I called him Masta and he would refer to me as Grasshopper. He was an incredible friend and I will miss him and his...

    Memorial Day..

    Several years ago a good friend of mine died that was in WW2. When they played taps, I thought to myself that this guy is really great. I later spoke with him and complimented him on how good he was. He looked at me with a little smile and said that the horn plays itself. He stood up on a grassy...

    muscle car

    You got that right Daris.:) Yep, it IS a Henry Ford product, and one of his best I believe. New to me.:) I'm partners in it and after we enjoy it for a while, we'll sell it and buy another one similar and do it all over again. Keeps me out of trouble during the winter months. That mining...

    muscle car

    Here's my muscle car round here lately. A 1931 5 window coupe Model A completely stock. It took some work to get it operational again. Pack rat nest stunk up the interior so bad that we had to tear it all out and put new in. A little rewiring and walla. Runs like a champ. The first cruise...

    Thanks Nick. I'll get in touch with them and see if the squeaky wheel gets some grease.

    I am on fiber. Well, I'm about 100 feet from where it goes by my house. Would it be faster if they came across the road to my house with it? I'm sure that 100 feet is plain ol phone line.

    Well I'll make even the slowest of you feel better. Mine is 6.6 and 1.1.:confused: Any way of improving this?
