I set out to find the old abandoned Apache Tear gemstone mine, and I sure did find it! I found thousands of Apache Tears scattered everywhere. Apache Tears are a form of obsidian, but are translucent and smoky in color.

Come big box garden shopping with me for mega deals and even free stuff!
I show you how to find major sales and discounts within the garden sections of Lowes, Home Depot, and Walmart. I also visit Tractor Supply and Ace Hardware in search of rare plants, seeds, and soil on sale.
Through my shopping adventure, I find out epic tips and hacks from the associates. They tell me when and where to find serious scores like half-off garden soil, clearance plants, and even free pots.
Big box plant shopping is a lot of fun, but it can be seriously expensive. If you know the days, times, and where to look, you can save major dollars on your spring garden.
All stores and regions will have different protocols, so make sure to talk to your local associate and find out when and where the deals will be in your local big box stores.

This is my best wilderness survival tip for finding water in the desert. I have found these solar powered wells all over the place on public lands, and most times they do provide fresh water, even in the most driest of places!

This is the Legend of the Lost Dutchman's Gold, a wild story about how a mega rich goldmine was discovered in the Superstition Mountains but was lost. A man found it by the name of Jacob Schwartz and mined vast amounts of gold, and then stashed it in the rugged mountains of Arizona.
