Afternoon Guys. Just got back from two days working on our house in Goldfield. Had a fun trip got a lot organized and some work done. I'm planning on going down weekly for a few days through Oct. But we are going on vacation next week for 5 days.

Afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all having a better day than me. I awoke to the banking alert on my phone letting me know I was over $400 in the negative! Apparently someone got into my amazon account and ordered a laptop. It has been a mess to get worked out. fun fun.

Wow, didn't even know that was possible these days with all this hyped up extra security everyone keeps wanting us to use.
Case in point. I tried logging into the Thunderbird/Cougar forum I had not visited in over a year (at least) and now I have to have a 10 digit password with at least one capital letter, one number and one symbol. I am not trying to access my bank account, just a forum on Thunderbirds/Cougars. Unreal. Hopefully who ever ordered the laptop gets caught.

Wow Greg sorry to hear that. Hope it all gets worked out without it costing you.
Haven't checked yet. But there is still lots of gold in Goldfield. There is a vein that goes under the US Hwy 95. But the cost to move the highway 2 miles away out weights the cost to go get it right now.
Went to Fallon and bought a set of tires for the wife's Kia & had a nice lunch.

Interesting. Sounds like Calico. IIRC the story goes that two brothers spent most of their lives living and working the silver mine there. The carved out a small room to live in, and had they turned right instead of left, they would have hit it big in silver. problem now is, with silver not being worth much anymore, it would cost more to dig it out.

Good morning Nevada!
Damn, Greg, I'm sorry to hear that. I've always said, there needs to be a hit squad, to go after hackers and identity thieves. Just kill them in their parents basement, and call it good.
