12-14-10

I was sitting around reading a book yesterday around 9:45, when there came a knock on my door. It was Junior and David. They wanted to know if we were going for a ride.  “Sure” I said. “When do you want to leave?”

We decided to leave at 11:00

The group consisted of Missy, Junior, Cindy, David, Becky, Dennis, Patti and I.

We went south to the first BLM long term visitor area. Drove through the camp and out into the desert. Most of the ride was on fairly flat terrain with a few tight spots in some of the washes.

We continued South and East until after following a few wrong trails and a stop for lunch in the shade of a Palo Verdi tree.

Missy found two really nice quartz crystals at the lunch spot.

After lunch we drove on, to the Livingston Mine and stopped there for a short break. Then we continued along the trail to a spot where there is a lot of exposed Quartz. We stopped here to look for crystals. but didn’t find any.

We got home around 5:30.
