Been a crazy busy week here. After work yesterday I decided I neeed to visit a local wash to see if the big rain a couple weeks ago uncovered any new material. Spent about an hour or so looking around, this is what I found

a few tumble size jaspers

this one is loaded with hematite

white sagenite. Hard to see in the pic but it's full of blue sprays

a couple I windowed, first has lots of orbiculars

this one looks plumey

found 3 mosses, first 2 are small but should grind down to '1 cab wonders'

last is a nice sized chunk of golden goodness

Thanks for looking!

I Wanna Rock!!!

Tony, definitely let me know when you come back out! Just as long as it's not late May - late September. Hell, even then I guess we could put on head lamps and go night hounding like Jamie
