Don't call 'im "Spun-nik" for nothin'. One buritto, when using afterburner, is good for
three trips around the living room, at hip level, 4 or 5 mad dashes up and down the hall, and then collapse in the middle of the kitchen, in a pile of smoking fur! O. K., O. K............The cat doesn't
really eat burittos.

We went out for breakfast and dinner every day. My wife liked that.
I drink milk after every meal, ya know, even after writing it down, a waitress will forget the milk. []
I'm an old country boy, and I love my cow squeezin's. I was darned near raised on fresh whole milk.
What is this 2% low fat, wimpy white water? Sometimes I'll get a carton of whipping cream and slam that suka right down.

I have some photos of my Gold claim, and have loaded them into "Photo bucket", but haven't figured out how to get them on the forum yet. I'll post them as soon as I figure it out.

O. K.....Many thanks to blueshark, I finally got it .
I'm looking to get 1 or 2 claims in Idaho. These are pics of the first claim I looked at.
This is me at the upstream end of a claim. I'm preparing to walk the claim.

Now, this is why I love it so much. I can camp, fish and hunt, without reservations. Of course, prospect for gold too.

This photo shows the stairs that go up the back leg and to the body where you enter.

Hey Starship: Wow, the bed and breakfast, who would have thunk it. Love all the pictures. Gotta a question, can't remember which state we were in going across the country. Think Wyoming or Colorado, on the two lane we were traveling in the 60's. There were miles and miles of old autos set upright on the side of the road. Realize that they have rusted away by now, but was just curious as to the meaning of all the old cars on the road. Keep the pictures headed our way. Here's WAVING TO YOU.

I've been across from Nev. to Kansas several times, but was on I-80 all the way, do you remember what road you were on when you saw all the cars? I did see some old cars in Neb., on the North side of I-80.

Hi Starship: I have looked on the internet for maps from the early 1960's with no avail. We were on two lane roads from South Carolina across the states until we got into the Portland area headed to Seattle. I know the states, S. C. , N.C., Tenn, Mo, Colorado, Wyoming, ID, Oregon, and then into Washington. Hope in my old age I didn't leave out a state. Strange that I have the travel log with expenses for the trip but not the map with the route. We had planned to make the trip back, but it would be a little different traveling on the interstate. How fun could that be traveling back in our 61 or 62 vette. That brings up another issue, we have someone coming to look at our cars this weekend. The only one we would consider selling at this time is the 62. Any ideas of prices, would like to have something in my head just in case they get serious about a buy. This is a red car, of course, we will not sell the hardtop, as my 61 is red with the white cove, and we sometimes switch the red hardtop for the white hardtop. Isn't that just like a women, can't make up my mind as to which top I like the best. Anyway, the 62 has the rag top, and the folks coming have already been told that the hardtop does not come with it. The guy already ownes a 62 with a hardtop and said that was not a problem for him. This may not come to pass as we have been using the 62 for the past few months and may not be tempted enough for a sale. Last time I checked they weren't make the 62 vette anymore. Starship, please continue to send us pictures. Here's WAVING TO ALL OF YOU.
