So, Bill, did you head out to the Oceanview Mine last weekend with Walt Lombardo? I thought I saw someone with the initials "Bill G" on the list?

Unless the Oceanview Mine was near Mount Vernon or Thomas Jefferson's place, or DC, it wasn't me. I did call Walt to see if he had the Gem Trails of No Cal. book. He didn't, so I ordered it on Amazon today.

Ah, okay. Walt's newsletter included the roster of the folks heading out to the Oceanview Mine. There was a "Bill G" listed and I was wondering if it was you. I've sort of convinced the family to give it a try. Maybe we can meet up down there. Walt's tried two or three of the mines down that way and indicated that the Oceanview Mine was the most "kid friendly".
Thanks Paul

Paul, your kids will LOVE that place. Bring lots of buckets, you're going to end up taking a LOT home! Even the road is paved with shiny rocks . . .
