JJ really is a sour-puss, isn’t he… I mean, for a guy in the service industry, he’s a real cuss.
Cha-ching! What are you charging for guide services? Providing a quick panning lesson is one thing, but this is actual guiding…
Thanks for the summary, James! I am sure we all appreciate it when you tidy up the story line and let us know what’s going on… I think we call that a “re-set” in the business…
Nice gear… Why, those pack straps won’t dig in at all… And Poor Doc- his bunions are already screaming! But seriously… it’s about JJ’s nose… and the look from Mark… What’s that supposed to mean?
Four Campers, four tents… that, um, makes sense…
The Daily Trail 
So, we’re missing something here, or the Mark Trail Gang has lost their marbles. I mean, would any sane person bring a complete stranger into one’s confidence to help find a mine on a map (that supposedly already indicates its location)? And did said Mark Trail Gang figure out that JJ might want a cut of any finds? Or all of it?
Actually, unless we end up with a 6 month lost in a cave scenario as we we’re put thru a year ago, I like the art work and the camping. This is more like the Ed Dodd of old. We need to have them all have flap jacks in the morning.
