my friend was telling me about this place. Do you have the directions? I wanna take some fancy shots. Can you get in there with them? lol

It was called Forbidden Gardens but I heard it closed early this year...

[SteveCGG]

Insurance was great but it took about 7 months to rebuild the house and get moved back in...

Nope kidney issues....

Well I know that people think that calcium causes them. But some evidence suggests a deficiency is what causes them. The 2 things that make up stones are calcium and a type of "glue". And when you don't get enough calcium the other stuff binds all the calcium it finds and creates stones. It's weird but I know when I got mine I hasn't been getting much calcium. And since I havent had one.

Their are several different types of Stones. But the most common type are made up of Oxalate and Calcium... Oxalate is the glue and the Calcium is the hard sharp stuff.

The worst pain I have ever had was when one got stuck.....
