compleat dineing set

On my way out the gate the land owner came out
and gave me some bad news. The Stiles ranch is now closed no more new diggers. he said I could finish
out my lease wich is only a few more months but shut down the new camp. anyone that has over 3 months left
on the lease can get some money back

that is very dissapointing news for ya'll i'm sure. but it is also sad for those of us that always looked forward to your postings.you guy's had a great run. sorry for your loss.
nice dinnerware by the way.

Sounds like some deep pockets moved in.

Excellent set of Faberware !

Thats a good amount of kitchenware

When I first read your bad news I thought " thats not too bad, in three months there will be nothing left anyway "........But ,,are you saying they closed the good recent point producing zone

I thought from the pictures you posted before that is was Stiles you were digging. I dug there for 5 years a long time ago. That was when most of the diggers were FREE diggers if you know what I mean.

Bummer, Maybe there are future plans not yet revealed.

That magnificent FRL was once slammed shut in mid stream due to certain family objections...It eventually reopened and everybody dug happily ever after
