Watching this bring back memories of watching every new episode every week with my grandpa. Good times

You and your Grandpa - that's the real 'gold'! My Dad and I used to watch back during the mid/late 90's. We loved this show! In 1999, we went to a GPAA outing, in North Carolina What a wild adventure!

@@GoldProspectors So many memories 🥰 Good and 😢 Was saddened to hear that the Buzzard passed away before I even joined the club many years ago. I've had to give up the membership some years ago because of my marital situation at the time. My husband got to be on a show with Perry at Georgia Loud Mine 😊

He was the first person I saw panning. He explained panning in the video when you joined the GPAA . I have many of your Gold Fever shows. I have always enjoyed the segments that had your Father in them. He really seemed like a real good guy. You could tell he truly loved what he was doing .

That song, that man, your filming. Its wild for me to wven think about the impact it's had on my life. Since the shows 1st airing I have been out adventuring looking for gold. Originally on my bike as a kid in Oregon and as a teen and young adult I brought probably 100 different friends, their gals, and now their kids and there is no end in sight. How many did they show and take prospecting? How many tall tales and dreams have been spawned because of these trips? How many new pals did we meet out on the trails? Like I said, it's just unbelievable what The Buzzard gave us. It sure would be nice to see new adventures of your family prospecting and having fun but sometimes even great things come to an end. Guess I'm rambling on, anyway. $67.50 🙏

I swear I bought a Treasure Hunter magizine when I was young and if I'm not mistaken your dad had an article in there, either way I'm a retired Ironworker and joined GPAA again since twenty years and getting back into it. Keep playing your dads shows or let me know where I could buy all his shows

I'm sorely interested in how Buzzard would react to all this anti mining rhetoric thats been shoved down everyone's throat the last decade. As Buzzard said many times, if ya can't grow it, ya gotta mine it!
