I'm sorry if thinking of taking my 84 year old father on a 200 mile trip to visit the widows of siblings and some remaining siblings themselves while at the same time possibly meeting some forum members seams ridiculous to you.
I apologize for requesting such absurd information as when and where.

I didn't mean that. I meant everyone trying to make the guy move faster then he is able to. He's doing his best. It's not my gig I am just sticking up for the guy.I will shut my mouth now.

I'm not trying to make anything happen before it can. It's hard enough to coordinate one thing like a dig let alone a trip (maybe the last) for my dad at the same time.
That's all I'm saying so...

So the horns come out, geeze, no wonder digging is growing more and more competitive. as the hobby progresses forward there are less spots to dig, value goes up, and people try to look out for themselves.

Anyway, I just wanted to suggest that it SHOULDNT be on the weekend of the 28th, 29th, as saturday is the franklin mineral show (which quite a few forum members go to, I set up there) and batsto on sunday.

Just my 2 cents, cheers

Franklin mineral show? As in Franklin NJ? I was planning to take my homeschooled kid to Franklin for a science field trip. He is into rocks and minerals, especially fluorescent ones. How big is the mineral show? Maybe a date to avoid or try to make if we go there?

No need to get snippy rick, it was just a suggestion, even if not for the mineral show, then for the batsto show. Thats something most people can agree on.
