Happy New Year!
First Rockhounding adventure of the new year.!
"Desert Hues Adventures"....
for Chrysocolla & Quartz w/ Copper Minerals
near Desert Hues Mine.....
Tom and Cheryl came all the way down to the Southwest to collect a variety of Rough Rock Specimens to take home.
We were flattered that we were on their Bucket List!
"Desert Hues Adventures" took them on a successful hunt.
They met us at the shop and we all headed
out towards the claim about 9:30 am
for Chrysocolla & Quartz w/ Copper Minerals

About an hour and a half later we
found some good hunting grounds.
Robert showed Tom and Cheryl some samples
so they would know what to be looking out for.
It looks a lot different on the outside than the inside!
Tom is already finding some nice specimens ..
Yum!
Tom and Cheryl's "kids" Look on
as Mom and Dad continue on their hunt....
Sorry pups, too much Cholla out here
to even think of cutting you loose!
Yup, that is Cholla, AKA "Jumping Cactus"
Very pretty but don't go near it or....
It BITES!
Here Cheryl points it out, as she chuckles
because Tom got attacked by it earlier...
But Tom got the last laugh! ...
Not 3 minutes later...
OOPS!...
Look at the bright side...
At least is wasn't a rattle snake!
Back to the task at hand ...
...........................
There you go Cheryl! ......
Think it might be a tad too big though.
I don't think even all 4 of us could
get this into the back of your truck.
But you have the eye, can't deny that!
Tom is on the roll too!
He looks pleased!
(Desert Hues is here to please! :) )
Cheryl says to their friends...
"HELLO FROM ARIZONA!"
Tom and Cheryl reached their goal #100 !
and it's not even 1:00 yet!
Are they happy?
What do you think?...
When our customers are happy we are happy
Got a little souvenir....
a Cholla Skeleton, they don't bite!....
The "Kids" say;
"Can we go home NOW?"
No... Right after lunch tho...
We set up the chairs,
pulled out the cooler and feasted.
As we ate our sandwiches
we had some uninvited guests!....
It's ok tho,
they only wanted a drink,
Always happy to share with the wildlife!.
drink up little buddy and pollenate the desert wildflowers..
Ok, NOW we can go home!...
.

Was great spending the day with our new friends
and we hope they are happy with their treasures!
Remember to tell all your friends about DESERT HUES!
