We had a chance to catch up with Mike and Judy while we were in Sapphire. Mike took us on a guided tour of the gem fields which was very informative and later sorted what shreds of sapphires we found.
Also had a bbq at the van one night.

You're just jealous Dave, and so am I. It's pretty country out there, and I do have a Rubyvale Sapphire which I wear proudly. Lucky buggers. Have fun. Chris
