    Hey, love to see what you cook. Almost baked spaghetti corky style. Did a lot of cooking and helped Corky cook for lodge meetings, big pan of spaghetti in roaster pan in oven, Corky always said that was how he got rid of his moldy cheese. Just cut most of it off, melt it and good to go.
    When dad was junior warden at Lamar lodge she helped with cooking, she was always amazed how the guys would gobble up ham and beans and chicken and noodles. No surprise to me, comfort food for farm boys.
    Big secret about freemasons, they will eat cheap cookies if they have coffee to dunk them in. Ha

      Mom helped dad cook, didn't word that reply right. Frankly dad was a better cook than mom. He was a navy cook, he could do bread, mom could do pies. Used to go and eat sunday dinner with them, mom went to church, dad fixed dinner. Had bought them a bread machine, which I had gotten much enjoyment from. Said Dad, what are we going to do if the bread machine breaks. He rattled off his recipe. 200 lbs of flour, pound of yeast? Flat of eggs, so much shortening. Told him he might have to reduce his recipe. Said when the marines were on his ship they really liked his bread.
      Sometimes good simple food just tastes the best.

    Love your adventures, regular channel already done it, but I am older than you, ha.
    Stopped at the crater of diamonds coming back on a road trip, stopped at local Walmart and bought buckets and sifters, scratchy things, big spoons. We had a blast digging in the mud, found some Jaspers, but brought home a bunch of diamonds. Brought my buckets home with some rocks, got dumped out on carpet of my old work car which I parked to take rental. Lots of little sparkles in the sunshine, nothing of any size. What I remember the most was my wife taking the water hose to me to wash off the mud.

    That looked like so much fun. I would definitely go there and give it a shot myself, especially after the rain, and dig deep into the water channels. Thanks for sharing Adam & Abby, that was awesome. Hope you guys find some diamonds at home. I would also use a magnifying glass to look for sure. 👍. ps: I have a secret trick to making spaghetti Adam. I make the sauce first like you did first, but I don't pre cook the 'spaghettini', I break it into three parts, and add it into the sauce(mix it a little to spread it evenly) on low simmer until the spaghettini is soft but NOT fully cooked(mix a little). Then I take the pot and let it rest for 10-15 min covered(kept warm). I love al dente pasta. You should try it, and see if you like it. It's so awesome trust me. If you use regular spaghetti, dont add as much and needs to simmer a little bit longer in the sauce. Took me a few try's to get it perfect. Bon appetite! Cheers, Blessings and Happy Easter 🙏.

    A canoe trip on the Current River, in south MO, is well worth it. If you still have the prospecting bug, you can dredge the cracks and crevasses of the shallow creeks for gold.

    I have to say I blamed it all on you two. Went camping this weekend with my new card iron Dutch oven 😋 and because of you cooking was easy, fun and delicious we had biscuits, banana bread, meatloaf and pineapple up side down cake. Everyone enjoyed and I was just stunned I had thought this would be more trial and error. Awesome weekend 😎 we had because of you. Thanks for sharing love the content. I use to do some metal work, That's what caught why I started following you.
    Thanks again 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

    there is so much stuff in those screenings everything looks like a diamond, yet everything doesn't look like a diamond at the same time. No wonder you take it hope and dry it off so you can get it under good lighting.

    Adam,
    I'm from Rapid City SD. In SD you can tow your travel trailer and another trailer such as a boat, snowmobiles, quads, just about what ever you can imagine. I would think as long as you didn't exceed 55 feet. But it would allow you some options.
    Keep up the good programs.

    Abbey your T-shirt slogan is very reminiscent of an advertising slogan/tourism advertising, here in Australia back in the 80's and 90's and the slogan itself has made it into every day use even now
    (Darryl Summers used to do a Saturday night entertainment show called "Hey Hey It's Saturday" you'll find snippets on UA-cam it's quite funny ")
    Daryl Somers was the face of the Northern Territory campaigns for a good stretch with his catch phrase "you'll never, never know if you never, never go."
    Also here in Western Australia when it was open (it shut last year) We had the "Argyle Diamond Mine " the only place in the world that produced Pink Diamonds
    They Fetch exclusive prices when they go to Auction.
    I Am glad you had fun
