I am going to a crystal mine this weekend in Ft. Drum, Florida. The main find there are calcite crystal-lined shell geodes. I hope to find many, along with shark teeth, fossils, unusual shells, etc.

Anyway, should I post pictures of any crystals I might find? I don't know if they are needed for the pictures section or not...

Here are some examples of what people have been finding there:

Pictures are always needed for the pictures section!

If you get some good ones, go here:

and "Create Content". The rest is pretty straight forward (I hope!).

The site above will be the GR site in the next week or so...

Oh, yeah. The crystals. Spectacular!

Ok...thanks, Jon.
This week has gone by so slow..I can't wait to go crystal hunting, lol. You are only allowed to take one 5-gallon bucket of crystals from the site...and I plan on staying until that bucket is full!
