A few photos from our trip to Burkholter's Quarry on 7-16-2005. Kerry Matt did an excellent job of setting the stage for this dig with an amazing display of finds from Burkholter's dating back to his teen years. Kerry helped all in attendance get the lay of the land in this fine quarry.

In March 2005 nine members of our club took a trip to the Spruce Pine area of North Carolina, and to an amethyst mine in Jackson Crossroads, Georgia. Here are some of the photos.
