    Gold-Prospecting Twinnies!!Jim got bogged bad Day 2...Kangaroo prints....jumping....we followed them for agesProspecting yarns around the fire...Day 2- found lots of round metal hoops from many beer kegs, empty, broken glasses, old pub site ...Day 3 - went to a site near Calgardie today...in an old mine here...Found a cannon ball?????Native bee hive, you could actually see the pollen in their pollen bags...they don't sting...And finally not us😔 but John and Aleisa found the first bit of gold for the trip, 70 dollars worth129 year old house, built by the Bunnings brothers, owned by the local Warden...Old ambulance, Coolgardie Museum, excellent museum...The museum had the most incredible bottle collection I have ever seen...I wonder what they put in it, probably cocaine????Found by a prospector...1970...Doors leading to no-where....Largest nugget ever found in WA...life-size replica...
