have been to the Utah BLM site but I guess I am looking for first hand knowledge.

			<description><![CDATA[ My son and I went to the 52nd annual South Eastern Idaho show this afternoon at the Bannock County Fairgrounds in Pocatello, ID. We bought a few nice specimens
from around the west and South America. We are mostly interested in local minerals, stuff from Idaho, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and
Montana--in that order and in their natural form. I thought I&#39;d share a couple pictures with you all!

the show so I suggest you get down there and see it. There was an especially good dealer from Colorado that had a large quantity of nice minerals. As a bonus
this show is totally free too! The address and hours are posted in the announcements section.

The hike up the sides of Marjum looked promising. I'm still trying to find the right layer of the shale deposits where I know they are imbedded with consistancy. Although I've found a few decent spots I haven't hit the mother load yet. I've had great luck at the quarries in the Wheeler Amphitheator that's great fun if you have kids.

			<description><![CDATA[ I want to purchase a drill press.  I think that drilling holes in tumbled rock, then making necklaces and such might be the simplest way to share my hobby with my extended family.  A big part of fun for me in rockhounding is being able to give stuff away, and not everyone is jazzed about recieving a rock.  But a nice tumbled rock, in a necklace.  I have 25 nieces and nephews, not to mention my own 5 children.  And it would be a great thing for my Art class that I teach.  <br><br>Anyway, I... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Spent the weekend in the area around Natural Bridges.  We visited a couple old uranium mines in the area.  None of the associated copper seemed too special, so I didn't pick up any samples.  The neat thing was finding a small pocket of &quot;trash&quot; - the plant material that the miners usually found associated with the uranium.  I was able to seperate a small piece of extremely crumbly wood from the wall of the mine. You can still see some of the original fibers running through it.  I'm... ]]></description>

Are these flowers?  Or is this the color of the soil?  Does it point to some iron in that hill top?  Does this mean anything to the rockhounder?  <br><br>I have no idea whatsoever, and perhaps it means absolutely nothing.

I was rather successful last summer.  <br>So I hopped on Google Earth to see if I could find the sat maps of where I went.  It was pretty fun.
