Good afternoon bloggers, as you can see I have abandoned my post!. I am so surprised that I haven't been kicked off yet. I have tonz to tell and lots to show so be very patient and I hope it will be exciting. I'm gonna start out with a small trip I took back in april with a friend. It started out when I was talking to a guy, who is an electrician, about this melting lead idea I had. I told him how I wanted to melt lead or copper and make a perpetual machine. We got talking and he lit up and said that is dad was doing something pretty cool where he lives in Nevada. I asked him what it was and he told me that his dad wanted to figure out how to reproccess slag from old tailing piles from mines who melt and refine ore to get metals out. I did'nt really understand why or what the whole purpose was, but I could see why he might have wanted to do that. As we talked the more excited we both got to actually go down there and he how this operation worked. He told me that the third weekend of april would work for him and asked me if I wanted to go. I talked it over with Lisa and we decided to go down with my daughter and my friends daughter ( which are also friends ) so this made a trip of four people going. We packed up with my friend's trailer and 4-wheelers and my truck and headed down friday afternoon. He was telling me that his dad lives pratically in the middle of nowhere and that he has a junk yard with things he can use for his experiments.. Boy was this exciting!! We made it to Las Vegas, and then headed towards Henderson. After another hour or so we were nearing a place called Searchlight, he said that his dad lives a short drive from there. We finally got off of the highway from Searchlight and to a dirt road to this place that had a chain linked fence fully fenced around. This 20 acre piece had a gate that opened with a remote with camera's surrounding his place. When we got to the gate all I could do was just stare at all the things he had, I have seen junk yards before but this place was beyond anything I could imagine. This place was awesome!! My friend kept telling me "I told you so!" and when you hear about a junk yard at someones house you would guess that it was just little things collected over the years. This place was something else. This guy had things like old cars, trucks, busses, trolley cars to trailers, singlewides, double wides, little boats to big house boats and on and on, just to name a few. Our daughters was literally preoccupied the whole day in a half we were there. We finally got settled in and visited with his dad for a while during dinner about all kinds of stuff and what it was he was trying to do. He gave us a breakdown and then preceded to take us on a tour around this place. I was in awe the whole time because he was no scientist or engineer, he was just an ordinary guy trying to figure out how to make things. Better yet he had his very own bone yard to pick apart things he needed for his experiments.
We spent the better part of the next day learning and talking about some of the things he wanted to accomplish. With all this experimenting he said he has outside funds from different investors investing in this very idea that would hopefully make them millions.
What a trip!! I have had fun trips before, but this trip was just astonishing. Here are some
pictures so you can see just some of the things we did. 

Anyways, I didn't take a whole lot of pics, next time I'm gonna get tonz more. I really enoyed this trip...It's cool to see other people doing things that I enjoy, and also to mingle and get other ideas that I probably would of never thought of otherwise.
