    After a trip to the Oregon coast we came home and my dog wasn't doing well, the vet said she had an obstruction, He removed a large Agate from inside her insides so while cats may not eat opal, keep them away from your dog.

      Thank you for sharing. I never knew an opal could be upside down. I have an opal about 10 cts that I need to be set in a piece of jewelry. I will definitely take a second look at it now to make sure it's set right.

And I’m headed out tomorrow to look. We had a pretty good rain the other day so I might get lucky. The Natives in Missouri were blessed with an abundance of chert and flint. I should make a short video of a couple of hillsides on our farm during the winter. Hillside is covered with it, although it’s been exposed for who knows how long and mostly freeze cracked👍🇺🇸

    Pulizer's distinctive voice sounds quite a lot like a gentlemen that I play online with. I've been accusing my friend of being Pulitzer and running a side business as an opal cutter for months now. He swears up and down it's not him, but his wife's name is Sheila so I'm not convinced. Pretty sure they have cats too. Anyways, every time Pulitzer puts out a video I share it to my gaming friends. I love that voice and that quirky sense of humor.
