 Linda Lord sent out an E-mail with the following text about Crystal Moonbeams in Hell, I found the webite very interesting and thought you might too.
Hi Folks,
For those interested in crystals there is a website that features the largest crystals in the world. These giants, many fifty feet long and four feet thick are in a cave in a mine in Northern Mexico. The website details the rigor of photographing these crystal dreams in the nightmare of 150 degrees and 100% humidity deep underground. If the mine ever reopens for tourists I'm up for an expedition. Supposedly a book is coming out soon by the explorer/photographer who created this website. When I get my copy I'll post a review. The URL is: www.canyonsworldwide.com/crystals
There is a new show coming to the Travel Channel on Tuesday nights at 9:00 and 9:30 PM, called Cash and Treasures. I thought some of you might like to check it out. You can read about it at http://travel.discovery.com/fansites/cash-treasures/about/about.html.
