[Rockhounds] Terlingua calcite

[Jeffrey T. Cessna]

Actually, Paul Garland has entered the Terlingua (Little 38 Mine) 
site into Google Earth (the stand alone program, for those who are 
not familiar). I am not sure what layer it is in because I have a lot 
of them turned on. Out of curiosity I entered Terlingua to see where 
in TX it was and found Paul's entry about 3 miles to the west of the town.

Cheers,
Jeff
