Date: Wed, 02 May 2012 11:48:02 -0700 Message-ID: <os03e20g3r0glno6asqoyfbx.1335984482044_at_email.android.com> Wow I had the honor to be there when that 100% complete and crusted 17 gram gem was found. It was beautiful. And it still looked good after the rain and wet soil that surrounded it. I was grateful to be part of the team that day. Btw one veteran hunter left because he thought that we were too far south 1.2 miles from Lotus park. Good to meet you Bob Ron Peter and Michael. The home owner was very hospitipal and a pleasure to work with. Her neighbor too. The horses not so much. They wouldn't leave my dog alone.
