We decided to go to a local mine for some rock hunting. We drove exactly where the book told us to go but never did find it. At one point, we were on a scary road that was litered with garbage and animal bones.
It took awhile to find a place we could turn the truck around and we went down the "other" road and came back out on the main road again........UGH! We drove the 20+ minutes back out to the freeway and then 20+ minutes down to another entrance..........ANOTHER 20 minutes on dirt roads and we finally came to the area we thought we were looking for BUT we couldn't find the mine or the owners who are always supposed to be there. Judy was really disappointed and wanted to leave right then but I found some "pretty rocks" and spent about half an hour collecting more.
Oh well, better luck next time!
Out on lonely roads--- I shudder to think of it, but I'm an adventurous type at times, too. Glad you found a place to turn around and leave.
