Gold Panning Adventures
![]() ![]() ![]()
|
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and currently prospect in the Dominican Republic for the last 2 years. Originally from the US, I panned the streams and creeks around the country for a little over 17 years. I was able to do this part time as I was a guitarist in a band touring. It took me to some of the best sites the country had to offer. Currently I run a small Gold Adventure company taking people out finding Gold. Can't get much better than that. Hope to be a asset to the forum, if anyone needs anything on this side of the world feel free to ask. Ken |

Hi Jarabacoagold, Good to see someone joining our forum from overseas. Look forward to some your your stories on gold prospecting in your country. Do you use a metal detector as well as panning for gold? Cheers Ted |

Welcome to this forum Ken, We look forward like our Ted says, to your imput of the pics & adventures. Guessing that while out detecting you also spend time playing the Guitar? While i ask is that years ago my hubby & I drove into a place named Niagara Dam, I was puzzled when i said i could hear someone playing a guitar..hubby does not have the good hearing so thought i was 'nuts'!! lol BUT we came across these chaps, sitting on rocks playing after a days detcting..it was great! Cheers, kath |

I'll carry a guitar with me sometimes. I get inspired after a good day and the pan shows color.
