AWESOME Sphere!  I remember back years ago when they had the Spyder mine field trips but didn't know they still held them or did you go in on a club trip?

I know a member of the San Francisco club and they have invited me a couple of times.
I can go there anytime. All have to do is contact them and let them know. And be honest and pay the $1.00 a pound ( I think that’s the price) it’s getting slim pickings,  I had to work my butt off and I didn’t get any with great color

Nice Jhon , blue wood and I bought a nice piece, haven’t worked it yet. One of the vendors called me in February and someone brought a piece by his way, I had our friends that winter in quartzite go over and they FaceTimed me before I bought it. He dropped it off on his way back to Oregon. One of us will post ours if we ever get caught up.
