Gold! There are quite probably a dozen books and movies with that one simple title: “Gold” Then there are books and movies about treasure and sudden wealth. This is a much more complex type of gold. This gold is the driving force behind that paycheck we received twice a month; reward for our labors as we loaded the bus for the trip home at the end of the shift. In this part of the world there is a pretty fair chance a person could be a modern day gold miner…. working in a modern day gold mine. These stories are about those of us whose lives evolve around a shiny golden metal that most have never seen. Stories about the trials and tribulations of finding a life in “Boom Town USA.” It began as a series of short stories, written over the years, all squeezed together in one place to make a book. Just for laughs. Still is I suppose. I would like to call it an anthology. I would also like to call it a novella, or a Journal written over the years. Whatever fits. It is a working class tune It is a working day tune. It’s a poem of sorts.
