Hi, Lanny
>Glad you liked the analcime–
Well, it was a rather massive crystal compared to the other examples we had
seen. <G>
>I had a good time (at the meeting and collecting–even though the actual
>collecting was a bit meager).
Me too. It was great to get out in the good weather and see a bit of the
country I'd never seen before. Tackling a tangled web of logging roads,
getting thoroughly lost, and then finding the way out the other side has
always held a special thrill for me. Most of the logging roads around my
neck of the woods are 15 miles of bad road to a locked gate!
BTW, the hike along the quarry at the edge of a 500+ foot dropoff didn't
bother me a bit, but my knuckles were white again crossing the
Longview-Rainier bridge on the way home. I wish I knew what it is with me
and bridges! <G>
Thanks again, Guy
