Dog Days of Summer

2007-08-12T13:57:00.000-07:00

Well it is now the middle of August, and I am waiting for the weather to cool down a bit, THEN I will be heading to Eastern Oregon to Glass Buttes. That is the Obsidian capital of the world. For those who have never been there, it is set aside for rockhounds, and Flint Knappers by the BLM. It is acres and acres of Obsidian laying all over the ground, or you can dig a hole and find more. There are so many varieties there, a few are Rainbow, Fire, Flame Mahogany, Pumpkin, Midnight Lace, Leopard Skin, Aurora, and so many more. It is free for the taking. You are allowed to collect 250 pounds per vehicle.
Has anyone out there ever been there? If so share your experiences with me.
Now let's hope the weather cools down soon, (kinda miserable in 100 degree heat with no shade for 60 miles) Then it will be time to head over the hills. Maybe we will meet up there some day.
TTYS, KOR

Hi Everyone,
I guess I had better jump on the band wagon and get a Blog going. This is new to me so bear with me. Well I now have 3 websites going, there is the main Rockhound website,
www.dbrockwerks.com
It show cases our Lapidary passion, and we offer gems, rocks, tools, books, jewelry, and more!
Our next site is an online Mall, offering countless items from around the world. Many catagories, PC, Games, Pets, Books, Health Care, Photo and Electronics, way too much to list, Look here,
www.dbrockwerks.com/shop.php
And a few days ago we decided to start a kind of Ebay store for odds and ends. You never know what will be on the site at anytime. Here is the site,
dbrockwerks.ecrater.com
Feel free to contact me, and I hope to figure this Blog stuff out soon. Let me know if you have any constructive comments. Thanks,
Talk to You soon,
Dan
