The creek isn't that big, but these things just dredged large holes to float themselves and piled the stuff out the back after running the dredgings through a large sluice box on board. Which means in effect, that since my land sits on the flood plane, I am sitting on five acres of gold bearing rock, about 20' down
But, I digress. Up the creek we went to Centerville, where there is nothing much left but a school house and museum. The locals get together there and hold shindigs, some of the old families are still buried in the cemetery, including some friends of mine. Within eyesight of the school house is something somewhat unique. This house.
