    Hi Jeff! Im a 44 year old refrigeration mechanic, build old cars, like quality in things and understanding how they work. More importantly, I love knowledge. I just want to say thank you for all the information you provide while exploring. You do such a great job of teaching and making it fun with your enthusiasm and passion of geology. I wanted to be like you when I was a young man but my world pushed me into another dimension for awhile. When I watch your videos, I imagine being there with you and enjoying the geological hunt while learning mineral names. I am planing a trip with some friends and checking the claims maps so we are not trespassing. Your channel has awaken the little boy in me again. There is nothing more constructive than that. I hope to give back soon. Thanks friend.

    I remember watching the The Ballad of Buster Scruggs movie and seeing how the old prospector sampled along a stream with test holes and followed the good pans up a hill to the mother load .

    I grew up near Azusa Canyon and always love hearing Jeff talking about the East Fork. He&apos;s the reason I ever tried gold panning in the first place.

    Which one came first, the geology education or the gold fever? This is the first video I&apos;m watching thanks to your short showing up in my algorithm, you probably already talked about it..

    Jeff, being a stuntman and being around every type of actor and comedian you can think of I don&apos;t think I&apos;ve ever found anyone as funny and hilarious as I find you😅😂

    No one talks about feeder creeks the same way a fisherman doesn&apos;t talk about the best place to fish, they&apos;re trying to keep it to their self. So only they can get all of it.

    Had to watch the longest weight loss commercial in life, but definitely worth the wait.
