I'm back.....

I am finally back from the Grand Canyon, just in time for the big dinner next week. The weather was cold but it was really nice for this time of year. I did'nt get to enjoy the view because we went to work from sun-up to sun-down. Work has been really scarce these past few months, it's a pain just trying to round up work from week to week. I have'nt had time to do alot of experimenting since the summer even though my mind works around the clock just thinking of what to do next. I am getting close to try one more experiment with my furnace. I have'nt had much success with the last two melts, because of the way I built the furnace. Apparently it does'nt get hot enough around the ladle to actually melt the metal. I hope this next run will do something different. I also been learning how to pan for gold and read up on all the lost treasure stories out there. I have'nt had any luck finding anything but I tell ya, I sure had alot of fun trying. I bought a military generator about 2 years ago and for the last year had it repaired from a guy I new. I finally got it back and it runs like a champ!! It is big enough to power up a normal size house for times of need. Anyway this sums up what been going on with me lately, until next time.........
