Harry, we'll be selling with Barranca again at Electric Park first 7 days. Last year "first 7 days turned into 13 days so didn't get to shop much. If we get free, we'll make it by that way. We have other friends that sell there and one across the freeway at a new show.

I'll keep a look out. Last year I pretty much saw the Barranca tent and the booths between there and the parking lot. The Electric Park RV Show across the street would likely be a better bet. It is more of a "tailgate" type show (and costs a lot less) and I'm guessing rock prices will be more like Quartzsite. Electric Park and most other shows seem to be low prices only by the barrel or large quantity. Rhodocro should be close to you but I don't know how reasonable they are. My friend Marino sells rhodochrosite and Columbian amber (copal) poolside at Howard Johnsons or one of the motels along there also.
