I have just always loved this creek, to me it's very typical of some terrific Missouri Ozarks scenery.
We always seem to be in the middle of one project or another. We are avid rockhunters and drusy is one of our specialties that we collect and sell. We do some occasional arrowhead hunting, build things (airboats, rc cars, haunted house items, who knows). We hunt, fish and hike. This is just a blog to show the things we do. Ed can build anything as you can tell when browsing the blog. I do a lot of crafts, mostly sewing. I've been doing candles non stop for a very long time as well.

A Missouri Creek on the neigboring property
I have just always loved this creek, to me it's very typical of some terrific Missouri Ozarks scenery.
An Awesome Cave
There is no trash in the cave thankfully except one soda can from the early 80s. There is some writing on the cave ceiling and walls, but not bad, I wiped a bit off, so luckily it hasn't been trashed.

We haven't posted in awhile, lots of new stuff to add and we've been getting lucky where a good friend has been giving us some great specimens from the Brushy Creek Mine out of the Viburnum trend.
So will post some of those! And some are available for sale as I have quite a bit now, so just drop us a line.
This is a piece from the Brushy Creek Mine out of the Viburnum Trend. It has pyrite and dolomite. It's a gorgeous piece.
Smaller piece of the same stuff.
Here's a standard piece of straight galena. I don't have a scale here, but this little cube is close to a pound if not over it.
This is some terrific calcite crystals with pyrite, dolomite, galena and I believe some sphalerite.
Hope you enjoy. Will get some more posted here in a bit.
