BEE LINE "It's always wise to stop wishing things long enough to enjoy the fragrance of things now flowering." -- By Patricia Clifford.

After that busy April it's nice to stop and pick a few daisys, smell the orange blossoms, and grasp the beauty of all the flowers. It's great to realize the bliss of knowing our show is over and that it was a great success. It gave joy to many who viewed our beautiful cases. There was the excitment of winning on the spin­ning wheel or seeing a geode cut. Visitors were educated in lapidary arts, identifying petrified wood, making a ring, faceting a stone, etc. We also made a nice profit.

Of course once my legs stopped aching from working at the show, I went to the CFMS Earth Science Study program at Zzyzx. Several of our members went along--Ginny (lecturer and bead stringing teacher) and Jerry Grafton, Dave (wire wrapping teacher) and Matt Anthony, Walt Wright (lecturer and field trip narrator), -and Walt and Joan Abramson (students). It was great, weather was perfect, people were friendly, but those NOC workers, as well as others, were really busy.

Thanks to all for the help that you gave in April and may you blissfully smell the flowers in May. Bees do like flowers!

NOC is hosting the Gem & Mineral Building at the Orange County Fair July 19 (Friday) and 20 (Saturday) from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. We will be there all day and will take care of all the hosting and demonstrations. It will be fun if a group of us plan to be there most of the day. We can take turns going t~ see the fair's exhibits. We only need three working as host and hostess at one time, and about three demonstrating. Todd will furnish us free passes and free parking to the show. Twelve people signed up at the last club meeting. If anyone else is interested please let me know. If you desire to be a renegade and serve as host or hostess at another time, I have a sign-up sheet for other times. You too will receive free parking and free fair pass.

Let's do our two show days up great--NOC style! Weai our hats, vests and badges, and our beautiful smiles. We will welcome everyone and teach them about our great hobby. The gem and mineral exhibits will be in the Little Theater this year. Mark those dates on your calendars. Come, let's enjoy the fair and help promote the rock and gem h~bby.

TODD SCHOWALTER told us some interesting things about fossil crinoids and their present day relatives. He explained how to become a fossil--it takes just the right conditions. His slides showed many different types of these animals that so much resemble plants.

Thank you Todd for a great program for our April Regular Meeting.

Dear Friends ­

I want to thank you for the $200.00 you gave my students for the rental of their cases. It goes a long way in keeping our program off rock bottom.

You continue to have a very friendly show. Again, on behalf of my students, I thank you.

Respectfully,

The North Orange Co. club certainly thanks Mr. Bidwell and his group for the prompt and speedy way they set up the cases, and for being so patient when some of us were slow in getting the cases emptied at closing time.

AFMS NEWS The following was taken from an article by John Boland that appeared in the AFMS NEWSLETTER March 1991:

"LAND AROUND YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK IN JEOPARDY Your rights to use the seven National Forests and other lands (state, private, BLM) near Yellowstone National Park are in jeopardy. A new document has been issued that could inflict severe land use controls to 19 million acres around Yellowstone. The Greater Yellowstone Coalition, an environmental group, pre­pared the document Visions For The Future. The document gives the National Park Service some control over Forest Service land use policies. The Park Service is not a multiple-use agency. Public meetings are being held in the four states within the 19 million acre area in December/January by the Yellowstone Regional Citizens Coalition. More information can be obtained by writing Multiple-Use Land Alliance, P.O. Box 400, Battle Ground WA 98604.

NOC NEwS 8 May 1991

HOW ARE GEODES FORMED? One of nature's favorite games is hide and seek. For example, many useful minerals are hidden in the earth's crust, and it's up to us to seek them. One of these buried treasures is the geode, a hoard of colorful crystals concealed inside what looks like a plain rock.

Every well-stocked rock collector has a geode, a roundish rock sliced in half to reveal a pocket of sparkling crystals. Basically, it is a hollow stone of quartz, sandstone, or some other common mineral. It's glassy crystals are clustered together lining the inside wall of the hollow.

Usually, the glassy treasures are tinted crystals of silica in the form of semi-precious gemstones. They may be rose-tinted or honey-tinted quartz. The secret pocket of the loveliest geode is lined with rainbow colored bands of agate. All of these sur­prising pebbles are formed in more or less the saine way. The patient recipe is done by water dripping and seeping through pores in the earth's rocky crust. Often the ground is bedrock sandstone which contains lots of silica. Molecules of this mineral are used to build tough quartz and gritty grains of sand, also a long list of semi-precious stones in colors that rival the rainbow.

Seeping groundwater dissolves silica and other minerals from sandstone bed­rock. It seeps faster or slower through the pores, depending on the

dry and rainy season. When it evap­orates or becomes trapped, it tends to dump its dissolved loot. These deposited molecules patiently arrange themselves and form glassy crystals. Sandstone is a porous rock filled with minipockets. Here and there it may have holes as big as your fist. In order to create a geode, the earth needs a secret little cave in the bedrock and lots of percolating groundwater. The recipe takes perhaps 100 million years or more.

As groundwater seeps through the porous sandstone, it dissolves silica and other minerals. Time after time it seeps into the mini-sandstone cave and leaves its loot behind. One by one the deposited molecules arrange themselves in crystal formation. If all of them are silica, the crystals will be glassy clear quartz. If a few impurities such as iron are present, the glassy crystals will be tinted with some flowery color.

Sooner or later the relentless weather wears down the bed of sandstone. It falls apart in chunky pebbles and shatters into piles of sand. Our geode has a hard rocky crust and when the bedrock eroded, it became an ordinary looking rock. Because it is hollow, it is lighter than solid rocks of the same size. And where you find one geode, usually others are near.
