That's a very cool spot to visit for sure! The crystal piece Timmy found and Mom helped dig out is very cool! Nice find Timmy!
 Be prepared to carry some weight if you visit this spot though, these pieces can get rather big. This one we left behind, that's alot of weight!  Mostly shell though as you can see with a small agate star in the center. Was found just like this, probably cracked by freezing water.  We also found some nice weathered out chunks with awesome agate and a couple whole eggs. More pics of those coming soon, but I can tell you that one of the whole eggs is 15 pounds and the second one weighs almost 8,  Hopefully they have some purties' inside when cut.   Stay tuned for updates. CP -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator
