[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 291869, member: 704"] When I get to my phone I'll post a pic of a 1849 Colt powder flask that I found near where Sully trained his soldiers. Somehow it must have exploded because I only have one side of the flask. My grandfather bought a homestead from an old trapper (Mike Belonge) along the Sheyenne river. He showed grandpa where Sully had dug trenches and used the natural valleys to train soldiers. I called the state museum people once, but they hoohummed so I'm never telling to dip wads anything. New Mexico has a state park called Rockhound state park. They let you keep up to 15 pounds of rock that you find. I didn't realize we had opal in the United States until talking with a fellow 1000 miles later. I found five of the local Thunder Eggs, but like a green horn idiot I threw away opal. The ground was covered with Jasper in places. The Thunder Eggs were located on top of sheets of obsidian.
