A customer came into my work last week. We got to talking about gold mining,old mines and a stage coach stop that was not far from my house. I knew the area but not the exact spot and he said that it had been 40 or so years since he had been to the area.
He said that there is a rock with " Queen" scratched into it in the area and once I find that I'm there.
So naturally I have been talking about this with my wife ( who just rolled her eyes) all week.
Yesterday we went looking for the area,plus just taking a little drive. We had given up and we're heading home. We came to a sharp and steep downhill curve.
I figured that I better get out and walk first before driving us head first into something I could not see. Good thing to because the road was completely gone and I could not see it over the hood of the Toyota.
Got back into the truck and my little cousin says " I found it". I say found what? She says the rock with Queen on it.
It turns out that the spot where I parked to investigate the trail was looking directly at the rock with Queen scratched into it!
I didn't notice it but she sure did. Very faint and hard to see but it's there. Funny how I parked and we were looking right at it.
