hookman, I'm not a rockhound, ( I do like rocks though ) but I may become one after seeing that. Those are beautiful.

Hill 60 and Saltspring Island are quite famous for their Rhodinite. When I first started to work on the Waterfront in 1987 the tiwanese where shipping it out by the gravel truck full and we put it in containers for them. I picked up a few pieces that they left.
