I think Susan went to this last year.
Many people have been asking to have another sale so we will be having another huge rock sale in Paramount on Saturday and Sunday, June 15 & 16. Material will be $1.00 per pound for most. There will be a lot of new material form another estate sale that is also old stock. There will also be some finished items and equipment available. This will be priced separately. There are still a ton of items in very large sizes also.
Any Questions email at oaamimi@aol.com
Tracy
Hope to see you there.
Saturday & Sunday
June 15&16
Rhino Linings (Industrial Plant)
7326 Jefferson Street
Paramount, CA 90723
from 9:00am until 1:00pm
Bring your buckets and spray bottles but please leave your hammers at home due to safety reasons.

Yeah, I went to it. It was super fun. I was a noob, and bought a lot of nothing rocks, but now that I am slightly less of a noob I plan to go again, it's a good time. This seems to be leftovers from last year's sales (?), plus some unknown new stuff. In last year's stuff, they had boatloads of huge pet wood (and some medium/small) and I think fossils. They also had a whole bunch of Howelite, and Obsidian (some sheen).
Unknown what the new stuff is, guess we'll have to go and find out! Bring buckets, sunhat and spray bottle. I'll probably be there at 9am Saturday rushing the gate with the thundering hordes . . . since, you know, that's just what I need, more rough rock.
Scott, and maybe Bill can answer this, whatever happened to this decedent's slabs? Last year Tracy was talking about selling off his slabs in a separate sale, but I never got any notifications about it (and I'm (was) supposedly in the club, so should have gotten them)?

I'd go, but I have too many rocks.
Sorry Susan, cannot help. No nothing about the decedent. That's a 5-Star word I have only previously heard from lawyers, Susan are you a lawyer?

I used to be a Searcher, primarily so I could get in on these "first pick" things and get notice of field trips . . . but I never got any notices, Tracy never put me on the email list, or else only announced it at the club meetings. So I dropped my membership.

I'm getting the LandCruiser back from the shop this week so it'll need it's legs stretched. Yeah, that's it. I have to take it for a drive ... up to Paramount. Funny thing is, I ran across a rock sale along the way. Go figure!

"Scott - The Chameleon
Helen says I have an identity crisis. I think of myself as more of a superhero, The Chameleon, able to change colors as survival requires."
Hey, Scott, can you get your eyes to swivel independently of each other as well?

I'm guilty, I'm MAKING Paul, totally against his will, go to this sale to see if something has my name on it.

I spoke with Tracy last night at the Searchers meeting (and Auction night, Onlt spent $10) and he said there will be new stuff there. I'll be there between 9 and 10 on Saturday. What's another bucket of rocks. I didn't get an email on this either.
