I've added this to my calendar! It will be a pleasure to finally meet. Ohio in July oughta be muggy and rainy, but the fireflies should be a delight!

July 4th weekend. Seems travel would be a bear, and the place is probably packed that time of year. Does it get hot in Ohio? Figure if it does, July would be when.
How about some time when it's cooler, and less likely to be crowded? Better picking & digging if there aren't a hundred other rockhounds crawling all over the place.

I'm in that area from 2246 miles away for a wedding. I doubt the bride will change her dates to accommodate cooler rockhounding. It would be great amazing if you went. I will understand if you choose to stay hotter in Florida. The fireflies will be putting on a show! Tommy, my mileage above is to Marysville where I will stay. You might just have me beat.

BTW many hands make quick work. We can team up and dig many yards of material to sort thru

I can’t make any promises, but I have three college friends in Ohio, so I might be able to kill two birds with one stone piece of flint. Are you talking about digging rocks for three days in a row, or just meeting up on one of those days?
If we brought a big enough group, I wonder if we could arrange to have a backhoe there to dig a fresh hole?

DH has the week of the 4th off. So, I MAY be able to go. In all seriousness, it will depend on whether or not I can walk then. It would be awesome if we could go!

I'd be happy to sort that out. I found a dwarf for a mock wedding by placing an ad on Craigslist. A backhoe should be simple.

It might be a tough go for us but I'm not going to rule it out. To avoid a backlash I would need to combine it with a visit to see family in central KY - 4.5 hour drive from there.
Thanks to a friend, I already have a life-time supply of flint.
