Some place in those mountains, there is a vein of pure gold.

I know that there is speculation of good quantities of gold in the Chocolate Mountains. Dianne Feinstein, whose husband is a mucky-muck with the Santa Fe Railroad, had the state give her husband's company claim on the mountains in exchange for the relatively worthless Anza Borrego desert area. This was during the Clinton era, naturally.

We are being governed by a generation of brazen thieves.

When you read Golden Mirages, you may change your mind, the canyon, where the prospector goes to wait for the mirage of the ship, is 3 to 5 miles off of I-8 at Coyote wells, near Ocotillo, Calif.

Coyote Wells/Painted Gorge is where I bought my first 10 acres of desert land.

West of Ocotillo, in the foothills of the mountain range that I-8 is going through, there is a cave of guns, still in glassine, that when first found, had a Chinaman guarding it.

They are part of the Pancho Villa stash and a Rancher from the top of the mountain found the cave, while attempting to locate his horses that Pancho Villa stole, he brought back one of the guns.

When you see the giant boulders there, you will understand why we never found the cave.

It was so bad and rough, that for the wagon trains to continue on to Calif. coming from Yuma, they had to take the wagons apart and pull them by rope up the sheer cliffs.

LOL, wonderful stories [history] in the west.
