Anyways....

The friend who I was staying with has a genie stone cutter. I have a few dozen opanls I cut and polished, along with a hand full of other minerals.

I also got to mine in private mines in montana..... amazing scepters, emeralds, aquamarine, and sapphires. I mine herkimer diamonds a few times a week in n.y.. (tonight I'm o.m.w. after work. )


Interesting this a current topic. I will edit pics with stones after work.....

Im on my way to phish in Colorado this week. Always looking for new collecting sights for stones. I can show anyone in upstate n.y. some nice spots as well.


dude we NEED to kick it before you leave for the left coast!! and i'd love to set up a trade....maybe a marble for a herk or something.
i'll miss you man!!
