    If ya' make it out this way (Tecopa / Shoshone CA), theres an Opal field, some good sites for jasper and a bunch of other minerals in the area. (Area has a long history of mining for all sorts of stuff)

    Me and my friend meghan are in BC for a few weeks this summer drving around, maybe go into the US for a while lookin for some people to spend some time with. Were both open minded free spirits (authough not quite free from the slums of school quite yet 8/). We are both dying to get away from the civilzation we are living in and just be free this summer. Ditch this world for a while (unfortunately not forever) and get out on the road and into nature with nothing to loose like janis joplins song bobby mcgee. Man thats all we dream of.

    Oh well i geusse what im getting at is maybe we will bump into you guys on the west coast. :) :) :)

    Poor thing.

    Found out theres an old gold mine not far from here, (Lot's actually) the tailings left behind are mostly Malachite with some quartz and quartzite veins running through it. I'll get some pic's up later today or tomorrow. Still have to get my butt over to the Opal veins and grab some diamond coated files and a handsaw. :D
