TREASURE TRIPS

This trip takes me across the Great United States to Seattle, Washington.

I take a turn at Panning For Gold. 

I am going to let the pictures talk for me. 

THIS IS A REST STOP ABOUT 2 HOURS NORTH EAST OF SEATTLE

THEY ACCEPT DONATIONS FOR THE COOKIES AND BREAD, BUT THE COFFEE IS FREE!  AND LET ME TELL YOU THE COOKIES ARE GREATTTTTTT!

ON HWY 2 JUST WEST OF COLES CORNER

THESE ARE THE MOUNTAINS THAT I WILL BE PANNING IN.

THIS IS THE BASE LOCATION OF MY GOLD PANNING.

THIS IS THE MAIN SITE WHERE I TRY FOR GOLD.....WELL NO GOLD BUT DID FIND SOME NICE GARNETS.

(GARNETS ARE VERY HEAVY AND USSUALY ARE THE LAST THING IN A PAN WITH BLACK SAND, AND GOLD.

THIS IS ONE OF THE TOWN THAT HWY 2 TAKES YOU THROUGH.   IT IS THE HISTORICAL TOWN OF SKYKOMISH.  THE RIVER IS FULL OF SALMON.  HOW THEY GET SO FAR UP RIVER FROM THE OCEAN IS BEYOND ME.  MY BE I SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT A FISHING POLE INSTEAD OF A GOLD PAN....

THE GOLD PANNING DIDN'T PAY, BUT DID GET SOME REAL NICE GARNETS FOR MY TROUBLES. 

I DID FIND SOME POWDER GOLD UNDER HWY 2 BRIDGE JUST EAST OF THE TOWN OF GOLD BAR. 

I DO BELIEVE THE REAL TREASURE ON THIS TRIP WAS THE FRESH AIR, THE BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY WE LIVE IN, AND MY LOVING FAMILY WAITING FOR ME AT HOME.
