John - YOU'RE HOOKED!
Nothing better than finding your own rocks...especially when the rocks you find are better than the rocks you've bought.
Am I right?...or am I right? hahaha ;DS

looks like you're findin' the good stuff there Sands! WTG!!! I'd love to buy a flat rater from you, but I just bought a new rockhounding tool...a Jeep Liberty and it has taken a huge chunk out of my rock budget. What's the rusty piece of equipment next to that one big piece??a bicycle sprocket??? Steve

too funny Sands....try some morphine next time you go out. Heck, it may take the back ache away, but who knows, you just might be able to heft some of those bigguns in your truck. Steve

So how long are you staying in Rock Heaven??? Susan have you met up with Mr. Sands Yet- Seems like between the 2 of you you should be able to clean up all those Nasty rocks from that wonderful landscape!!!
