Casey brought us some radioactive bio-hazard candy and some calcite from a marble mine in Tate

When? When??? When are we getting BBQ...

Kim gathered together a tantalizing set of prizes for us

That agate is calling my name!

An inspirational rock

Sarah gypsy danced her way to a great prize

Some of the weird stuff we found -- apparently Rascal Flatts feels like today is a good day to throw a CD out of a car, "Teflondon" is slick enough to end up on the side of a road, and disc 2 was not as good as disc 1...

Calcite prizes were a free for all

If I can't get BBQ I'm eating the radioactive bio-hazard candy...

Armed and dangerous!

We were a tremendous trash toting team!

After lunch, members were treated with trip to collect at an old gold mine!
