Mojave!

We just got back from a fantastic trip to Mojave--our first time to actually step on the desert, instead of  just driving through it--and it was better than we had hoped! Our trip found treasure beyond our common thought.We cannot wait to return! What we discovered may not produce any monetary value, but it is priceless to us. We have found such amazing beauty in the geology of this earth--petrified wood of unknown age, tiny gemstones in sedimentary rocks, and some type of quartz (if it is quartz) that had to have come from deeep in the earth to have cooked it into its bubble like popcorn shape.
As we determine what it is we have on a geological basis we will get back to you.
