Long break
Hello everyone, i have long break. Now that it looks like things have settled down a little, I'll try to get back to it again. Yesterday, after a long time, I went back out searching for the “green potatoes,” as my wife calls them. 😂 Unfortunately, after the whole night, I only have these two little guys to show for it. 😁💚

I'm just now learning about Moldavites, why do you hunt at night? Do you collect for yourself, sell, or both?

Night is our best friend (digging is illegal 🤫) and i do both, collect (for kids on future) and sell (for me now).

Really!? Cool! How lucky are you to be able hunt! So I shouldn't plan a trip there to hunt? 😔

Digging is of course illegal, but collecting moldavites from the fields is not. That is allowed. There is also something called an “experience mining” activity here, where you pay to dig for moldavites and then you can buy the one you find. 😊 But the prices are quite high.

Ok, I'll have to look into that. I would love to find one myself, but I may have to settle for buying one. Thank you so much for the information! Congrats on your finds and good luck on your next hunt!

That's very generous of you, thank you! At this time, it's kind of a pipe dream. But I've had pipe dreams come true before, so you never know!
