One day or one half-day at a time for you now ... mate!

Any one of us who had that long or half that long for our entire journey would be of an excited mind set and not already sad.

I've got a feeling you'll be back ... but who will take you next?

Another 2oz from the ‘Outback Yank’ patch been through the cleaner.

We had another good good day Thursday with 20 gms all up.

I got 10,26g detecting, and Trent panned out 9.5 g for 2 hr dryblowing...

Funny part was that Trent sent me an email yesterday urging me to quit f-ing around and find some gold....he said we needed 6 g for 3ounces total...

i could only get 4 g yesterday,,,so I was bummed a little..

When I got to his home this morning I reached down like I normally do to get yesterday’s gold, but I found two bottles...l.one was my 4 g and the other was the 10,62g I got the other evening, ,, he had forgotten them in the total... lolol

so yeah, it’s kind of a good problem when 1/2 ounce can go missing and we don’t know it...ICAN say he was happy to see the bottles today because we are off this weekend, Queens birthday!

By the way he said he knew I had the gold ...it was just a test!

My big Yank a...

On ya mate, I`m running around like a blue arsed fly, but still only getting scraps. Don`t rest but tis coming no, next signal..............

[vanursepaul]

Well we are winding this patch up... We still have a lot of dirt to dryblow, but the detecting is basically over.

What a blast that was!!!

So now I am reclaiming the ground with the backhoe. I didn't realize how much dirt we had pushed up until I started putting it back!

We should finish dryblowing in a week or so Trent says. And another day or two to rehab the ground..... Then I will get all my gear prepared for a 6 month sleep and head over to Cairns via Virgin Air.

Hope to meet up with the Goldhounds and Norvic ...if they are around.. ?

, What a great trip this had been.

Thanks to everyone here in Australia for making it a memorable event in my life.

You’ve had a heck of an adventure! Thanks for taking us along. ?⛏

[Steve Herschbach]

I am very happy for you Paul and glad to see the life of adventure you are living that many can only dream of. Good on you!! 

[vanursepaul]

Thanks Steve,

i appreciate that.....

i love the travel, people and all the sights .... food and beverage too of course ?⛏

Learned a whole new way to get the gold this year... 

ihope anyone who can possibly make it happen travel to beautiful Australia!

Except don’t go to WA...no gold there.....

Looking forward to returning end of April next year.... 

I will be serving our Vets at the Ft Lewis Washington area American Lake Domiciliary for 3—5 months starting immediately upon return stateside.

Thank you all for dealing with sideways pictures, phone typos, and late entries.

As Tremain would say, ..... Much love to yas all... Cheers
