Right. I remember him telling me the name now. He got some of his big
'specimens' from their dump and even used their laps to put a quick
polish on the exposed turquoise. And it's really pretty stuff, with a
golden brown matrix. It's worthwhile to talk to them.

Good liuck with the weather. That's a high elevation and might feel
cool but the sun can get you quick. Wear long sleeves and drink a lot
of water.
