When ever you're ready Cal. I know here to look now. John-I will definetly be going back there, and I know Cal will come along too. I have to go back cuz I left about 15lbs of that jasper sittin' on the shore in pieces. Stupid me, the rock was too big to carry out so I broke it up and just grabbed a few pieces cuz I wasn't sure if it was anything good. It looks pretty ugly on the outside. That's okay, I know exactly where I left it. It's been rainning all day today anyway and the soil is pretty slippery there. I just got done making a cab out of the bluish colored agate material. I'll post pics later after i've cut some cabs out of the other stuff too.

Hey Tony. That'd be great. It's only 25 min away. Cal sounds like he's into it too. There's still a lot of that area I haven't checked out yet.

Hey Kim, I'll save you the trip out here. How much you want? I'm sure there's alot more where these came from. So far I've only walked maybe 100yards from the road and this is a BIG lake.

Run don't walk back to that site, can you stake a claim? LOL
Great looking material, don't leave a rock on the shore, it might be the best of all.
