On the 30th of jan the alterknight and his trusted cavegirl will be flying off to the good old u.s. of A. for a little bit of business and a lot of pleasure.The business part is attending the gem and fossil show in Tuscon, arizona the largest show of its kind in the world and without doubt the most spectacular display of minerals,meteorites,gems,jewelery,FOSSILS and ephemera you will ever see in your life, all spread over a huge number of hotels and halls.If you ever get the chance to visit it you most definitely will not be disappointed and Tuscon itself is a great city (reccomend you check out a bar called the MEATRACK run by a very colourful charachter and friendly barstaff).Hopefully i shall post some pics when i return to give you some idea of what its like! After that its Fun,Fun,Fun! as the beach boys say taking in phoenix, los angeles, las vegas and san francisco along with the grand canyon and robin trower at the filmore (wow!)I'll propably post some pics of this as well - So if youre curious or just bored check out the dump in march, you never know what you might find amongst all of the rubbbish - cheers!!
