The New "Golden Age" of America, I really like the sound & ring of that...
Alot... Gold to be found & dug up...
Found a very nice palm size Blood Red cup rock while taking a few pics right there at Lake McDonald. Turned upside down & stuck in the mud, sand & gravel, just being walked on & over for who knows how long... Stuck out kinda' like an eye catcher does, & I noticed it..
Some Ancient Indian sitting there probably camped out, likely fishing & enjoying the view, & left it for some unknown reason.
I had to pry it up out of the muck, & was happy when I turned it over. A Sacred color... of blood & life... My buddies first daughter I'd seen once back in So. Cal. so long ago, really liked it & held it, rubbing inside the part cupped out with her thumb the whole time, when we stopped for a visit, & so when she finally handed it back right before we left, I asked
her if she would like it, & she said yes, her eyes lit up & shining, and smiling big, so it stayed there in Montana
with her collection of other prized rocks... Her husband gave us a couple packs of
their frozen smoked deer jerky. It's real tender & pretty tasty, been enjoying it....
