Seasonal Journey

by | Nov 24, 2020 | Opal News | 0 comments

It’s been tough for all of us, almost all year long now with this Covid Virus. We thought, first we were going to skip our journey to look for Opal this season. The Mine Board finally decided to open the Mine for Shareholders only without opening for public, fee digging and the new store that just opened last year.

New Bonanza Opals Shop

Pretty neat Store huh.. you guys can also find our Opals and Jewelries there during the Season, usually the Mine is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day.

Since there are no many shareholder around, it was actually a very good isolation place during this pandemic. We dug in a Bank where we were pretty much separated from one to other, at least I did.

Geared up at Bank

no one else there but me and my ATV.. selfie time lol.. and don’t forget your sun/protector glasses!

Somehow we were glad that we have decided to go. It was a good season for us. I was scared with what is going to happen around me all this time. Being there and finding something that give us a hope for things that we dream of, makes me forget a little bit with what happens around the world lately.

so let’s forget the anxiety a little bit and enjoy the moment that makes me happy .. like.. this beautiful colored opal down below.
