Jo, thanks for taking us along. Looks like you had a great trip.
We get to see the desert in less than 2 months at Woodward Ranch.
Going to be a great trip.
In July we plan on going to Idaho and raid the back yard of Tony.

I hope Jo doesn't mind but I figured I'd post mine on her thread. Here are some pictures I took while we were out collecting. Along the way to the collecting spot.  Playing around with the photo editor.    Catmandew, a man and his pick.  Life in the desert, a mule deer.  And death.  I'll try and get some rock pictures up this weekend. |

Jo, we are already planning a trip out again next year. We want to make this a yearly thing for us until we can move out there in 8 years.

Great pictures Jo. Thanks for posting. It was a fun time (especially that last spot), but next time maybe we could get an ATV or an ORV. My truck is gonna need a new paint job!

Thanks for the photos and video!! It will make cutting, tumbling and polishing what Tony sent me that much better. Wish we could have been there.
