Topaz Mountain

.....First of all, you'll have to turn off the music on the blog, because this slide show came with a song! This was our first campout of the year, TOPAZ MOUNTAIN, wow. We went with Mark's brother's family, Gary, Jen, Cassie, & Chase. Mark and Gary have childhood memories of this place, hammering rocks for topaz. Not quite what Jen and I had in mind. Lots of dirt, antelope, beetles, snakes, lizards...good thing we have trailers! Gary was very serious about this stuff, naming every type of gem. (How does he know this stuff?)- Priceless. It is an experience out there. Serious Rock Hounds gave us a few tips, they came all the way from Alabama! They recommended a store for us in Delta, we did stop there, that is where the girls bought their 1970's sunglasses, that had been in the store since 1970! I think Joe Dirt owns the store. I'm looking forward to Payson Canyon-
