Had a nice conversation but I forgot to write down their names (I have trouble remembering names). Anyway, one of them showed me a small, flat bottomed fireplace shovel that I just have to have.

Started by marc.luxemburg@gmail.com
I know people make changes and that is their right to do so, so with that said we have to accept what changes we have to accept. But can someone explain to me how I can post pictures for my avitar as I can not find any way to upload photos in my profile settings.

I'm not a dredger myself, but ive been trying to follow the case of the fresno couple who got detained for dredging their claim. I can't seem to keep up with the regs but from what I understand, dredging is illegal in Ca. Other sites are up in arms about their detainment.
