This one gave me a good chuckle! Not only do you get person with the winter hat, you get an Opal portal to take you where ever your imagination takes you!
 
The Opal Portal Inside Someone Wearing a Winter Hat with Flaps was created with opals from my 2024 trip to Royal Peacock Opal Mine in Nevada! Same mistakes were made this trip as the first but a touch less severe! Bozo had enough food! But that vending machine and ice cream cooler got raided still! Located down a washboard road in the middle of a collapsed caldera, sits a magical spot well worth the trip! However, you need to arrive prepared or you live off the vending machine food and ice cream bars! Which isn't horrible! They at least have options for people who under estimate how many supplies are needed or extend the stay. In the end it works out!
 
As you stand on what appears to be a piece of wood, you would be correct! It is an opal that never got to be a full opal. A river or rip in the galaxy stands between you and the Opal portal! Thinking back to elementary school, when jump the river was played! Saying to myself, “I used to be good at clearing the jump rope gap!” I’d say jump the Opal river! Possible outcomes, land in a new destination or wet shoes? After clearing the river, galaxy rip, or possibly drying your shoes m! You find yourself at the portal where wild adventures await!
 
I imagine, with the winter hat, this portal definitely takes you somewhere cold! Extreme snowboarding or sledding with a gnarly Aurora Borealis flare lighting up the night sky! Maybe though, it’s all a trick for the gullible! In reality, stepping in instantly transporting the unexpected to a beach side party with music and games! Therefore arriving over dressed and under prepared. Well you know, now that I’m writing this out it hit me! It’s really a trip to Yellowknife in the north west territories, where a dance party is going on in the ice castle! With ice slides and a party hoping on the inside! This party actually happens in Yellowknife with a perfect little cabin near Prelude Lake to view the lights dancing in the sky overhead in March! Now the dark cave makes sense!
 
After coming back from that you would want a place to take a rest before scrambling up the rest of the mountain to summit in time for a sunrise! Looking at this again the thought just hit me! I might have spoken too soon. These opals came from a collapsed caldera in northern Nevada, the cave now resembles a volcano caldera still intact! Mind is blown with that one! Those are some magical opals! I’m stoked for the adventures you can create and travel to all within these magic little opals! I look
forward to hearing about them!
