  • @CORE1.8MINISTERIES
    @CORE1.8MINISTERIES Рік тому

    I have to say that was really fun. I enjoyed watching. The only thing I don't like about gold panning and gold mining is when people break out there metal detectors. I just have a frown on that because I think that maybe what people should do is detect it, put a marker on it and then record. I just don't like seeing the metal detector a lot for this kind of stuff. Relic hunting fine but gold panning, no. Other than that excellent job.😊
