Dave L. and Laura arrived for the Roundup, Dave brought along a selection of some of the great material he has been collecting at Buck Creek, in one of the many "secret creeks"

Not the typical small corundum spotted smaragdite that most people find, these are real rubies, the stuff most people wish they could find, good work Dave!

Linda, Nicole, and Travis Hartin

Jackie and Mickey

Steve, "dude, this stuff is free!" (What a surprise...)
