Today finds us in Salida. We met Don's cousin Mark and family from Texas for a mining adventure. My motherinlaw's grandparents met each other while living in the mining town of Bonanza. They owned a silver mine that has since been passed down through the generations and is now owned by Mark. To our knowledge, no silver has come out if it. The last two generations have never seen the mine so a local man who also owns property in this area agreed to show us where it was. It was only about 800 feet from the road but straight up with no path. It took a lot of climbing but we successfully made it.
