Here are a few others that I started and Dennis finished. This one will be wrapped for our oldest daughter Morgan. Her favorite animal is the giraffe and this cab resembles their coat pattern somewhat. This little slab was given to me by Ed (stoner), thanks Ed! Im not sure exactly what it is/where it came from...orbicular something or other. ;D Carey Plume from bobby1, thanks Bob! I LOVE this one. Backlit Moss from a thunderegg Backlit Ochoco moss And one that I didnt help with.......another moss. Dennis worked on this one twice, trying to get rid of the little druzy spot. It didnt open up enough to add to the cab but it also refused to grind out so I guess it stays LOL. Thanks for lookin, Shannon & Dennis

Shannon:
From what I know of Carey plume (learned from Mosseyrockhound) what Bobby sent you as pictured here came from the old vein..........you know, the one that was more or less dug out by 1962. You did a nice job with it. I like the Giraff orbicular stone. Woody

You two make a great team, you with the shapes and Dennis with the polish. I love the giraffe and the ocho.

Those are really nice! That first one is super awesome! It would be good if you could have Ed identify it. You just don't find that color combination very often. Great polish on all of them!

Shannon, The Moss in Thunderegg looks like some of the clear spring fed rivers here in central FL. Almost like SCUBA diving. It seems that teaming up works wonderfully. Bennett

That's a perfect stone resembling Giraffe colors. I'll bet Morgan loves it! I think the teaming up is working out very well! The Ochocho is my fav. Steve

When I saw the first cab, I started thinking, wow, Shannon found some of that same orbicular jasper that I found!!!!! I wish I could give you an id on that stuff, but I got it at a rock shop that was going out of business and nobody knew what it was or where it came from. It is a cool looking poppy jasper. All the cabs look great, you guys do nicely together.

I just don't see you as a team, I envision something more in the line of a cabbers waltz with grace and shine. Morgan's giraffe is a beautie and that Ocho is a killer.
