Have you ever seen that game mole whack. Well the people in their holes sure did remind me of this game. Every once in a while somebody’s head would pop up.

This guy was following me all over the place like I knew where to look for the good stuff.

Rodney was showing people where to dig and was very helpful.

You know me I just sat down rolled over on to my belly and started digging a hole to china. I was also trying for dirtiest digger award.

We dug deep, we dug hard, and we found crystals.

I believe a good time was had by all. Thank you Rodney for giving us the opportunity to dig at these mines. And thank you to the people at the Smith's store for giving us the great service and allowing us to meet there. Hope to see everyone real soon on another dig. Pat
