Nice. I guess that means that area is still open? We went there with a club years ago. It is around the mountain from Rainbow Ridge if I remember right.

Yes John, it is the area around the mountains from Rainbow Ridge. There are a couple more areas I want to explore in that area. Last year I found some material that very similar to some of the picture jasper they find in Oregon. I only found one small piece...so I wonder if there is more of it around.
Tony, you noticed.......that is the shape from the sheet I asked you for. I use your templates all the time they are some of my favorites!! I have also used the curves in your shapes to create other shapes. I appreciate your contribution.
Thank you everyone else for your comments, they are motivating.

Christopher,
Beautiful agate. Great cab. I have a soft spot for moss agate. It's what turned me on to rocks when I was 8.
