Glass Butte trip.

[Bayushi]

I just got back from a trip to the desert in eastern Oregon. Spent a couple days around Glass Butte collecting obsidian during the day and Scorpions at night. All told I brought home 7 scorpions, 1 camel spider and 4 cool green metalic beetles. I will post pics as soon as i find the battery charger for the camera.(Wish I had known the battery was dead before I left.)

i cant wait to see when you got pics posted up. the beetles are really cool. we used to find big green metallic beetles in south texas out in the desert walking on the ground and climbing on wood and such. cant wait to see your new scorpions too!
