    Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I'm doing everything my Doctor tells me, so I can get better... if I do... I want to take my walker out there and join Bryan and Matrix and get me some sapphires!!!!

      From another rock hound. Can you rent a scooter or get someone to wheel you there? The need to sift dirt for pretties is too strong.

    I always wanted to visit the USA. At first i wanted to hit the big cities like NY, LA,... Then i just wanted to see the national parks. Now, i wanna hit all these places, where you can spend a day mining for minerals, or gold. Because we can't do that in my country... And then, if i still have time, i'd hit the national parks.

Best Sapphires are in INDIA…

    Dear Crytal Collector. Your Title has the word 'sapphire' as possessive : 'sapphire's'. This is incorrect. In context is is plural: 'sapphires'.
