Tony, That Blue Jade is fantastic! Maybe I can meet you down there, again and you can show me those cool beach locations, again. I forgot where they are, again. Great work! Bob

Wow, I can't imagine you being able to see that dark and murky jade in I assume dark and murky AND turbulent water, and knowing what beauty lay within! That blue jade absolutely ROCKS!!
If you and meet Bobby in the summer months, after I'm off for summer vacation, I'd love to tag along!!

Thanks for the comments everyone, I was stoked when I found it and ground it.
Bob, Diana- Both of you always have a open invitation when I go. I know Bob lives further east of me now and Dianne lives in Sacra-tomato, I will give you all the heads up when I go.

Thanks for the pics Tony. What a great find. Does it get any easier to spot the jade since you have been at it so long? Do you have superman x-ray jade vision?
Please let all of us know when we can meet up with you. I missed the camping trip and I'm sorry I did. I hope there will be another one this summer.

I have a hard enough time finding rough in the bright sunshine. I can't imagine what it's like underwater! It is so cool how you can combine two hobbies.
