As you all can read, my name is Manson. ( no relation to Charles!! HA)
I'm 70 yrs old and not able to dig much. So most of my hunting is on the surface.
I don't know much about this business, but I sure do joy it!!
There's a place near my home that has a quartz vein that has been stirred up with a tractor. I've been finding some nice feldspar. Some look like aquamarine, but I'm not holding my breath.
I also find some nice rocks in landscaping rocks at the gym where I go. No one has stopped me yet. I bring home 6 or 8 rocks that can be sawed into slabs.
I won't be writing much, cause I don't know much, But I'll enjoy reading and learning from everyone.
Thanks for the welcome.
