Strange-- it works for me-- just tried it!
I'll see if I can find it on iFish where i lifted it from.
Ignore the vidio--- open the other links--- heres one--- shows that things broke down pretty quick.... and I'm not talking about the equipment
So far I was frustrated by the lack of motivation to actually get mining. I had been working full time for the Hoffman’s for no pay since the end of February. Joy and the kids had flown up to be with me after a month and 1/2 by themselves in Oregon. Joy was doing all the dishes and cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner for the whole mining camp. I spoke with Georgia Hoffman about the fact we hadn’t ran but a few hours after being there for nearly two months. She said,” sometimes miners only get their operation set up the first summer!” I knew this wasn’t the plan only an excuse for lack of work ethic. Todd kept saying the TV show was the gold mine! We were supposed to be seeing gold by this time. We had only three months left and I knew from the weekly clean outs that we were losing all of the fine gold due to the jig being incompetently set up.
Filming was cumbersome as the crew’s morale continued to sink. Leadership could not be expected from the production company as the camera crew was experiencing the same treatment as I was from Todd. My relationship to Todd was deteriorating at a incredible pace and tension was peaking with Greg Remsberg. I ended up staying away from Greg as he kept slapping my butt and saying inappropriate statements to me. All of us were getting sick. I started building an outhouse.
The days consisted of reading scripts written by someone back at the editing suite and cutting new scenes to help the first two episodes. More power plays between all of the men for camera time and who gets to use the tools or who drives what truck was getting old. Lunches mainly consisted of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or leftover bear surprise accompanied with Giardia infested Tang.
Joy was starting to feel very ill with the onset of Giardia from the unfiltered water. No matter how often I argued with the Hoffman’s to dig a well they continued to waste hours per week filling up large water containers out of a waterfall of untested water. I brought a commercial water testing kit to be sent off to Juneau when we dug the well but that never happened. I bought a truck so I finally could drive into town and get water for my family. But for Joy and I it was too late. Thank God none of the kids ever got the bug.
