I am pretty happy with the Gold Rush show so far!  It is certainly great entertainment for me!  Part of it is knowing the Hoffman’s and the others and seeing them at work and play.  I can identify with the problems and the high excitement that one experiences and the huge ups and downs that mining in the far north can give you!

I don’t know James Harness yet, but he seems like a good guy from what I have seen.  He was in town while I was at the the Hoffman’s mine this Summer so I didn’t get to speak with him.  Nothing was broken down right that minute, so he probably would have had time to talk!

I have not met Fred.  He is probably a good guy to stay clear of!  I was happy that he is the real bad guy on the show…not me!  Editing made me look kind of bad.  They of course don’t have time to show all of the work we all put into the preparation for the 2011 mining season.

I too can hardly wait until next Friday nights show!  I am very excited to see how much gold they find this season!  I hope they did well!  At least they are in a good place…the Klondike is gold country!
