Funny you should mention the Yahoos. I was involved in that mess. We were staying in the cabin by the creek when the kids who were camping started going crazy. One of the girls who was camping tried to run over her boyfriend with the vehicle they drove in. I had to go wake up Trey to call the Sherrif. It was quite a night to say the least.

Me and my boys used to camp by the creek but now you cannot do that anymore. It took some yahoos to go and trash the place and cause a bunch of drama with the local police to have ol Jan and Trey to say no more camping down at the creek. We live in Phoenix and take the 700 mile road trip out. We stay at the Antelope Lodge just getting into Alpine. From there we head to the ranch and set up the camping equipment and rock hound fish the creek and enjoy the wild life. Post some of your cabs.

I don't think I can make the show, unfortunately. I'll have to look up the dates to know for sure. I'll be at WWR in mid March. Will be my 5th time, love the place and have become friends w/Jaysen and Trey as well, real good people! I can't seem to get enough of the agates there. I have about 500lbs in my garage right now! I should post a vid of the plume cabs I've cut.
I'll try to make the show.... who knows!

Yes. I have a slab saw and I cut cabochons from the material I collect there. I make wire wrapped pendants and bezel set pendants as well...
