Cache Creek Prospecting and Thanksgiving Greeting

 HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU!
The Labor Day Weekend Cache Creek Gang

We are pleasantly visting at our oldest son's house this Thanksgiving, with family and friends gathered around.  The turkey is nearly done, and we are getting ready to sit down. 

I thought I would take a moment to share a picture from one of last summer's gold prospecting outings with friends from Missouri.  We had our two highbankers running, and the gang cleaned out a tree that had died and recently been cut down at Cache Creek.  It produced some nice gold, which, unfortunately, we did not get a picture of.  I'll do that later and show it to you in another post.

Gold is at $1373 now.  Hope your Thanksgiving is a wonderful day filled with all the good things that you expect.  As we begin our Holiday Season, may we all be thankful for what we have, family, friends and each other.

Good Prospecting to You,
Shirley

I have been trying to get over to Cache creek, Colorado for some time now. From what I have seen on youtube it is a very nice spot for gold. How did you do on gold there if you don't mind me asking?

Don't mind at all. If you are in a good spot, you can get up to a gram a day. I don't remember the exact amount we pulled out of that hole last year, but we did about that with each of the two machines we ran. However, we know the area very well and dug a spot I had been looking at for some time. Others do that well, too, and still others find nothing at all.
