No time or energy to read up on geology.  We are expecting 300 barn guests and I want to have my shop looking decent in case some decide to visit it.  I really could use a lot more inventory.  When I rearrange things, blank spots appear.  Today somebody visited my shop, a fine person I am sure, but he had a forceful way of asking questions, and I was at a disadvantage because I wasn't expecting it.  Anyway, he asked how long I had lived on the property and I said all my life.  He responded by speculating on how long a life I had lived, and he guessed accurately, which made me damn $%^&**ing mad.  I'm used to people either underestimating my age or holding their tongue.  Maybe time has caught up with me, or I have to get back on the treadmill, comb my hair when I get up, and wear make up not just for special occasions anymore.  !@#$$%^^&&

I made a good trade the other day, jasper and hematite for copper and turquoise and similar ores including lead silver.
