I dropped in to the Cougar Offices today to pick up my share certificate. I spent some time having a coffee and chatting with Dave Pugh. Dave has just returned from Manitoba after spending some time on the Cougar properties as a machine operator stripping overburden to help prepare the property for further work. He spoke very highly of Linda Caron the geo. and although he said he is not a geologist he is quite enthusiastic about the prospects for Cougar. Jenny the receptionist took part in the coversation, as did Mike Elson. Call me naive , however something about cougar that seems to be generating a genuine feeling of excitement. Everybody I talk to seems to be smiling and very optimistic. I showed Mike the map I had picked up over at the SGR office and he informed me that it is already outdated as they have added claims to their holdings through (I think he said option agreements?) These claims are down near the Gem Lake Area. I think most of what was talked about today was included in the last NR however since I am in their neighbourhood I think I will drop in more often for a free cup of coffee.
