Big Sky, Big Show, Big Fun !!! The sky was mostly clear and the persistent monsoon rains stayed away on Friday and hopefully through the show's closing on Sunday. Huge parking area easy in and out and a whole herd of porta potties. A wide variety of some 100 plus vendors and prices generally good, but as many times, many didn't put pricing on their goods. I bought 150 lbs of different Serape jasper, Cathedral agate, N Wonderstone and Mexican Crazy lace all at $2.50 per pound. Also a bunch of other specimen type materials. Couple Blue Forest and some Utah. Some fossils. Lots of dino bone for sale and much seemed well priced to sell. Many Colorado diggers and collectors were selling our area's unique minerals also.

Don't have a driveway My truck needs a runway. Turn right at the big blue lookin mountain, go 23 miles, over the yaller one and then up over the teenie little 13,000 footer and your there. Look for giant pile of rocks.

Good picks!!! Love that Serape. And the wonderstone. And the...oh well...I love them all.... Craig Just need to figure how we can get the Big Bend area covered now that Terri is out of commission for a while. Hope her hubby is better. Have to settle for playing with your rocks till the soccer tourney gets over. Since you may get slowed down will tease a fellow crazy for color guy with old stock picts but retain the original rock. Indian Blanket, Tricolor calcite and Pastelite. Picked up a couple of the calcite for a friend and she might also post their pictures for your viewing pleasure. Dint want to post the parana agate..Would have to guard my pile from you. grinnin at Craig...
