Hahaha. I know that story. The first usable hone I found really rocks and I found it in an old quarry that was used for building forestry service roads. I looked high and low and chipped a lot of rock in that quarry but everything else is loaded with inclusions. All the rest of the hones are under a road somewhere. I still look around in that area when I'm hunting but haven't found anything really good there since. The mountains are quite a ways from me so I only go out when I have a multiple purpose trip. Hunting, firewood, river fishing, berry picking and rockhounding call all get mixed up in a single trip. Typically hunting and getting firewood are the two things I do when I'm out rockhounding. Nice you have a spot on the way home from work. Iceni is combining his trip with a family gathering. Waste not want not.
