Good way to spend a day. I figure the nest with eggs is a plus. Thanks. Look forward to seeing the whole group cleaned up.

Wow, now that's a Laker! Congrats on the find.
Are those Quail eggs? They're so cute. Glad you had a great day.

What exactly is the event? Is it a fundraiser/moneymaker of sorts?

If so, I would have never expected that.

If so, I would have never expected that. They do. You can walk that whole field and never find all of them and every time they turn the soil you get fresh picking. Its surprising where you can find them. Nate and I did better this time around than we did up in the Superior area.

Very nice laker. I like stories that end happy. Will you cut the big lake agate or keep it as it is?

Is that first photo the laker? It's unlike anything I've ever seen before.
That doesn't say alot, as I don't get out much.
