parfive: Johnny the Swift, January 9, 1720 - Reasoning will never make a man correct an ill opinion which by reasoning he never acquired, for, in the course of things, men always become vicious before they become unbelievers. May 9, 2021 14:46:18 GMT -5

craigcis: I was wrong about the closure of the Burro Creek collecting area. They only gated part of it. The part that got gated is the portion where the best of the transluc3ent purple agate is, which is up close to the mine itself, and under the lip of the mine. May 10, 2021 13:14:06 GMT -5
