Conichalcite

Conichalcite

The green spheres in the vug are conichalcite.  Around the edges of the vug we see calcite
crystals, mostly translucent but a few green ones containing impurities of probably copper. 
The formula (CaCu(AsO4)(OH)) shows us conichalcite contains calcium, copper, arsenic,
oxygen and hydrogen

Conichalcite

Please notice that the crystals are on a shelf above the vug of conichalcite.

My Brother Craig

Dr. Lowell C Eicher, OD Today is Craig's birthday.  He is three years younger than I am young.  When we talk we talk about how the world goes so fast and we can't keep up.  He has sold his practice and is working there as a consultant for probably another year.  He works at his old office just two days a week.  He works as a substitute optometrist at Walmart in the three county area.  I think this pose shows his "ornery" side.  One of Mom's brothers, Uncle Carl, was an inspiration to him while growing up.  Uncle Carl was a self made man and he didn't accept any foolishness from anyone

Lowell Craig Eicher  This one shows his soft side.  He had done his own landscaping at the office as long as I can remember.  He does the daffodils and everything. Craig and Me He is also a Vietnam War Veteran having served in the Air Force.  He was stationed in Kansas when our father became so sick and was moved closer to home to help with things.

Indian Grass

Indian Grass by Nest Box

This a location at Gorman at which I have found interesting subjects.  If you want blue birds to nest you need to turn the opening of the box to the East.  The early morning sun kisses the front of the box and the grass.
