Dallasite and Flowerstone live on. I sent a couple of rocks to Mr. Mohs in the USA. He makes specialty “rock’n hearts” made of two slices combined into a heart shape. I asked for a Dallasite heart, a Flowerstone heart and a mix of the two.
With great sadness, I am leaving the land of Dallasite and Flowerstone (Vancouver Island). Real work, the non-rockhounding kind, has called me to the northern end of the continent in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. I am going to keep this blog up as a rockhounding resource for Vancouver Island, BC, and everything going well, Northwest Territories…
Well, not the birthplace, but the place it was first discovered and after which it was named. Dallas Road is in Victoria on the south end of Vancouver Island. My girlfriend and I had a kitten-delivery trip to Victoria this weekend and made sure we stopped for a quick rockhound before the 5pm darkness.
