Howdy
Howdy,
Yep, I sent you a PM Gnome.
Call me .
Thanks Monty for being on top of this.
I have been busy,, but today I am waiting on an order from UPS.
Well, we are getting close. so I will definitely get back on top of this.
The date was set for June 3rd and 4th.
I will try to get confimation of everybody that is going to make it.
( I know you are Monty LOL)
And Monty, I scheduled off from Thursday through Sunday, so I can make that rockhounding run with you and your group, on Thursday.
Then I can set up camp on Friday.
Keep in mind, the " LOOP", from my place to Dillon, around the back to Ruby Res, and back to my place , is going to be around 5 hours of driving time.
The soapstone can be picked up in 10-20 minutes.
The Garnets will take a bit of time, an hour or two, but, bring buckets, or I have some grain sacks you can use, and just throw some Garnet filled sand in , and take them to pick through later.
HECK !, That's a good idea, I'll bring some for the kids, and actually anyone to pick through at camp, when and if they get bored.
The birds egg opal, is about 2 hours of time, and I need to contact the landowner still.
Then , closer to home, the "Flourite" is going to take an hour or two.
and the slope it is on , faces west, so we can hit it before the sun goes down, and use the sun to our advantage.
You can look at my specimins, and decide exactly what you want to go get, and we can plan from there.
OH, I forgot about the "Montana Wonderstone", that would take 1-2 hours, theres just so much, a guy gets to wandering looking for "That PERFECT stone"
Ok , I better get, as I'm yappin too much.
Just getting excited I guess.
I will be checking my PM's and this thread more often now.
weekly for sure, but I'll try to check in at least every other day.
Take Care,
Good Luck hunting.
Dusty
