Welcome Aboard, David
Glad you found us!
We don't aim for non-stop daily dialogue here, but if you have
something you'd like to document or just share we're here.
The Alpine fissures aren't as easy to find now as they were
a few years ago when construction was still booming. There
was a time when we couldn't check all the Wake Co sites in
one day. Now, it would be hard to show you one.
But we're always looking and waiting for something to pop!

The TarHeel Club goes on quite a few fieldtrips, mostly to
operating quarries that you couldn't otherwise access,
each year. Some have good material and some don't, but
I'd say it's worth the $20 a year to join. It's always
interesting to get a good look at the geology of areas even
if there isn't anything there you want to collect.

Hope to bump into you soon,
Joe

Mark, We're going to need pics and a full report of your
recent visit to NAEM.

Welcome David.  Joining the Tarheel club is one of the best ways to get started.  Meeting other rockhounds, and going on the field trips is the way to go.

@Raleigh Rockhound -- I look forward to your NAEM report.  I've yet to have great luck there, but I know its there as I see everyone else but me finding great stuff!!
