9am and ready to go! |
All the "good stuff" seemed to be 4 ft
underground.... or do they just like to dig? |
|
Here is a nice piece of soapstone to carve |
The kids got a good one! |
|
Another hole... another large piece of soapstone |
We got to visit an old Gold Mine, this is the entrance. |
|
We were going in... and coming out muddy! |
This is the "Mother Lode" Quartz vein.
The dark streaks in the quartz hold the gold! |
 |
Our host had a few pups... I counted 9! |
|
"Twenty-Five Hundred Acres and you had to
choose my foot to sit on!" |
This is an area they have pulled out some very
nice Jade pieces |
