Braggfamily Minecraft Server Walmart Project

Braggfamily Minecraft Server Projects Here is a little sneak peek of the Braggfamily Minecraft Server project. We are building a new storage facility for all of our supplies and loots. We figured how fitting it would be to store inside a Walmart since we shop there quite often. Nicky and I are doing the main construction and Ozzy and Arniel will swoop in to put in the finishing touches (decorating and organizing). We do all our builds in survival mode and mine and harvest all the materials.

This years Hobby!

GOLD!  There Be Gold everywhere! This years hobby for me is Gold Prospecting. As it turns out (I've known for 14 years, just haven't acted on it yet) we live smack dab in the middle of the Gold/Pyrite belt of Virginia. Within about a 2 mile radius, there are approximately 18 or so abandoned mines from the 1800-1900s. There is even an old one about 1/2 mile up the creek that runs through the backside of our property, so I'm hoping there is plenty of gold flakes and nuggets for me to find.  The land here is rich in red clay and TONS (and I do mean TONS and TONS) of quartz. There are even pieces of quartz in our yard and woods the size of some small cars. After sitting and watching the shows Gold Rush , Bering Sea Gold ,  and many other related gold mining shows, I've gotten  the itch to go out and see if we have some  on our land.  During the winter, I bought some gold pans, Classifiers (screens to filter out larger rocks), and some PAY DIRT from various sources
