payhip.com/b/wD7Fl 260 8.5" X 11" pages, $5.00  As this is a PDF I made the photos large so you can zoom in on them. If they are too large PLEASE let me know.   A warning about the contents. Much of it is listing information so YOU can search out more if you are interested,

Just purchased and successfully downloaded. It's probably going to be the best $5 I ever spent!!
Thanks Dave

1dave Congratulations! I have been waiting for this. Purchased and skimmed through it. It will take a while for me to read the entire 264 pages. This will be a valuable reference for years to come. Have one complaint. The $5.00 price is way too low for a publication of this quality. I am honored that what I feel is one of my best Geode doubles is included in the book.

WOO HOO !!
Congratulations Dave.
Just purchased & downloaded, and am looking forward to a good educational read.
I'd agree with Beth, $ 5 is too cheap. But glad I got in at that entry level price  .
Thank you
Patty

I scooped up a copy and I'm looking forward to reading it this weekend.
Any chances of offering this book as a print on demand book for those who want a hard copy?

Thanks Dave Henry Thanks Henry, My daughter Sharon came through keeping my memories in some reasonable order and finding a way to get it out there. I have no idea how much Payhip and Paypal charges but I wanted to keep the price low to get as many copies out as possible. In my research "THEY" are always demanding $35 for a 10 page PDF. That is excessive in my mind, and searching usually produced a free version. I tried to share a bit of the life I shared with others. Dave |

Thanks Patty, I know you will straighten me out on any blunders I made. This is all new to me and I need all the input I can get to make the next book better. Dave |

I would love to make that happen, but don't know how. Sharon (my daughter) has done it, but with all the images it will probably be pricey. |

Thanks Robin, You are another member whose advise and council I deeply respect. Lambast me for ANY problems. About Page 2 . . .  I would have loved to take a full page for each site of Huge Thundereggs listed but worried about copy-write infringements. Ah, to be young and rich enough to travel to each site and take my own photos! EDIT: Drat! I forgot to mention that the FIRST thundereggs formed in Oregon were ` 4-5 feet in diameter! |

It took me 10 Years to get to 10,000 posts.  You did it in TWO (Great Posts by the by)  YOU are going to be your usual self  and RIP through this stuff and leave us all in the dust in your usual manner.  Well, I look forward to it.  |

One of my favorite "natural historians" ever, is Sir David Frederick Attenborough. He's also one of my favorite narrators to listen to. Your comment instantly made me think of him...and the life he lead being able to travel to the farthest reaches of the planet to pursue his passion.  |

Oh oh! I just noticed an error in the book. Somehow I managed to tell the story twice of the Geode Kid's Honor Systems Rock Shops that he set up across the west. He would collect the money from under the barrel and replace the eggs every month.  He believed and expected the Best OF US! |
