Thanks so much Sunrise and set gal,

The glowing rock room was very cool.

I thought the Vinegar pie was ok, but the Next I ordered the Peanut Butter pie

[talkingverve]

Rocks rock.

[dmccoig]

I am always impressed with the two word double same sentence. The ultimate plural Noun Verb combo, would you like to upsize that?

[NevadaGrey2010]

Great job again! I so much enjoy your storytelling, and learning about the history of these fascinating places you find. Vinegar and peanut butter pies --LOL -- wonder if there's a story behind that!!

[dmccoig]

You are so kind, thank You and I love your new webseiries, it is so funny.

Yes, yes there is a story behind the pie! ha ha

[pdtrudell]

Great video.

[dmccoig]

Thank You

pd

[marywinmusic]

Nice pace to this video. Though I would not be tempted by a slice o' vinegar pie thank you for sharing this trip Dan ;*)

[dmccoig]

Thank You marywin,

I found that if you put enough sugar in anything it makes an eatable pie ha ha

[hoffmann9471]

Very interesting like always.

I would not eat this vinegar pie , only a little piece..hihi

The minerals etc.. are very interesting. My wife has learned it and in this way the gathering of gems etc. became a hobby for us.

I´m sure that saphires and rubys are corunds and NOT spinells. Spinell is another mineral.

Anyway if it´s artificial or original. Corund is corund.

However, your video is GREAT CLASS.

And in 100 years they will look your vids not my vids....hahaha

[dmccoig]

Thank You so much Onkel Pete,

I should have asked my wife to sit while I edited to be sure I had it correct, so sorry, but thank you for your nice words about 100 years from now!

[jofrelly]

You Rock! (  :

[dmccoig]

Ha, You do

Thanks Jofrelly

[MerryGoRnd]

Vinegar pie? That's a new one for me. If I could eat it for FREE, I'd try it. But if I have to pay for a piece of pie it would be peanutbutter pie hands down :) That's really hard to find most of the time and it's so delicious!

[dmccoig]

I LOVE peanutbutter pie, she gave me a small delicious bite.

Thanks so much

[CanadianBeaver]

PEACE and LOVE!

[dmccoig]

Yes, I agree

Thanks for the nice wishes

[AtomicUs5000]

[dmccoig]

Thank you so much atomic,

Nice to hear from such an accomplished poster as you

[evilborg]

I nearly barfed about the pies LOL but the rocks were cool. I was a rock hound as a kid.

[dmccoig]

I did too, Thanks much Scott, She has taken me to just about every rock shop in the south.

[catherinetodd]

Yes, very interesting. I love rocks too!

Vinegar pie, peanut butter pie? OMG! Great story.

[dmccoig]

Thank You catherinetodd,

She hoodwinked me! ha ha

[whunterx]
