The Zees are in Happy Camp, CA

Happy Camp is a gold mining town in Northern California. We hooked up with a group of prospectors (called The New 49ers) and spent three days prospecting for gold. Some of them did it for a living, but most were less experienced. I think we were the only first-time prospectors. Beautiful country along the Klamath River, but no cell phone service, no internet, no nothing, so these posts are several days late. A lot of independent-minded people here.
