Placer miners would 'fire a pan to darken it with carbon and heat to show the "color" as they dipped and swirled river bottoms... Tin Pans doubled as bake'n trays for sourdough bread...cooked right in the fire or later in ovens.. *Just how did the trail cookie serve Mooseberry Pie without the essencial "TINPAN?" If'n I was a headed fer Rendezvou in the early days.. I'd be looking to get a new shirt and a tin pan to eat out of! Life changed for the better when Hudson's Bay sold cast iron pots.. *People could boil food and serve it hot! ...into a Tinpan! Yes they used goards-wood bowls and carved out burls.. *But the lowly tinpan or Pieplate was easy to carry and lasted a long time.. It was just 'civilized... Mayby you could develop it into a Frountier "Frisbie?" like in "Back to the future 3" <G> -=A=- > > > Thanks > > Josh > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Send online invitations with Yahoo!
