Over the past month I've been procrastinating about locating a rebuild kit for my T-80 compressor…read more I was hoping to find a rebuild kit locally where I live in California by searching with internet but quickly realized that was a bad dream. Having made many purchases over the years at Armadillo Mining supply including, but not limited to two dredges, highbankers, and equipment associated with metal detecting, I made a call to see if they had a rebuild kit in stock. Shelley answered the phone and I got the usually attitude. She is professional, upbeat, friendly and an extremely knowledgeable business woman who knows the various aspects of the mining industry and is connected to the mining community. I explained what I needed for my compressor and she said the parts would be in the mail on Monday. The price for the parts and shipping were more than fair knowing that in a couple of days all I would have to do is look in my mailbox. About an hour later I received an email from Samantha informing me that the parts I ordered were in the mail and I could expect them in a couple of days. That is what I consider great customer service with a smile. If you know nothing about placer mining and want to learn more, stop into Armadillo Mining and talk to Shelly or Samantha. They can answer your questions and give you some guidance in making decisions about the various aspects of placer mining. You can be confident in the fact that they are knowledgeable professionals who are honest, fair, and will treat you with friendly respectable customer service. There is a reason why seasoned miners use their services.

These guys have a wide selection of mining tools and equipment to help anyone from the tenderfoot…read moreprospector to the old sourdough miner find their gold. I'd recommend them to anyone looking to get equipment at a fair price.

This year we let our local host run the 5k before we got up. Then the rest of us joined the fun for…read morethe parade that takes place after all the runs are done. One member of the family participated in the parade so only 4 of us in camp chairs watching along the route. It was a bit chilly but about in the middle for weather experiences over the years. Cool early but sunny and warmer as the day wore on. We had hosts that we were staying with and drove us there and set up the camp chairs the use regularly as there are many places with good camping in the hills and mountains between the city and Crater lake. The scenic Rogue River runs through this valley too. Many of the local schools send out their bands, the large commercial enterprises like Harry and David, famous for their pears and gift packs who were founded here. City civic groups and various clubs participated. The city officials ride in classic cars supplied by one club. There were groups of dancers and horse rhythm groups to as agriculture is a major employer too. Everything from nursing school from a local college to to kids in scouting and 4H participated. Most groups tossed out simple candy packages in small sizes as you find at Halloween. The nursing school handed out mini hand sanitizers and Garry and David did make sizes of their genuine higher end candies like individually wrapped chocolate truffles. I came home with the sanitizer and the Harry & David and the group of us donated all the other stuff to a group of elementary age children standing nearby. They had quite a collection for bags they had brought batches told us that this event was better than Halloween. I am posting as many clips and photos as Yelp will allow me to give you the flavor of this annual Medford event. If you visit the area this time of year to see the pear orchards blooming, do take in the run and the parade. It's really hometown fun for all.
