I Bought a ..............
(Preview)
No! I didn't buy a jeep. I bought a mining claim. I move onto the claim today, it's at Sapphire Queensland. Hoping to make my fortune or just having fun trying. Will also be a nice base for the winter months and still travel around. A few of you already know. Time to make it official as of today.
