May 16th - There's Gold In Them Thar Hills!

While we have been cleaning the trailer we have been chatting to a couple of our neighbours. The RV across the way, with some really nice people, is owned by real Gold Prospectors. Johnny and Lisa spend their summer months panning for gold, and they really do find it! They showed us some of the results of their labours. We had a very pleasant time talking about how to pan for gold and where some good places are, so next year when we come back we might have a go and see if we can pan some for ourselves.

We were shown by a couple up in Alaska and in the process of tipping out his chips and nuggets of gold to show us, he dropped some of it!
It looks like a tedious job to me!
