There's Gold in Them Thar Shallow California Creeks

You are probably tired of hearing about the super recreational gold panning opportunities created by the drought in California.

I think I will call the participants the "Fifteeners".

I have decided to curate one more article regardless, it shall be about the new 2015 California gold rush...

Here is what the NY Times has to say about the California drought and the gold rush it has created:

How to make money gold panning in Utah

I'm back already. I found a really good article about panning gold in Utah.

Interesting for me because I am going to be there at the beginning of August, after Hot August Nights in Reno, NV. I will not be panning for gold but visiting the Bonneville salt Flats for speed week. You should go!!

I have spent a lot of time in Utah and to be honest, never really considered a place to go for gold panning.

I gave the article read and there's some really good links at the bottom that I followed up on.

I'm sure you will want to as well.

This might be a blog you'll want to keep an eye on.

Here is the LINK:

Hungry After a Hard Day Gold Panning?

English: Sourdough Bread (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

I couldn't find any real good gold panning articles to show you today so I decided to send this instead.

I have to be a fan of sourdough bread, so decided that maybe you would be to. As a matter fact it just had a tuna sandwich made with sourdough bread.

Anyway, it's a quick read, let me know what you think please.

A Scottish Gold Rush?

Here is a short blurb regarding a gold rush of sorts in Scotland.

It brought a smile to me as a pictured the Scotsman in a creek with a Kilt on. Wondering if Mr. Happy was getting a splash of cold water? Then it occurred to me that "shrinkage" would probably take place and solve that problem?

All this assumes the no BVD's rumour is true.

I could go on..........

This link: http://searching-for-gold.blogspot.ca/2013/10/professor-hausels-guide-to-gold.html has more information than you will need.

If you are like me and consider recreational gold panning as a hobby I advise you to go and take a look. If you pick up one good idea you will find more good panning tips than any other 10 sites. You can never tell, maybe you will turn a small profit this season.

There is not much I can add to this but I am going to let Zemanta give it a try.
