Well, when I posted that I was done for a while posting photos, I forgot that today is a holiday. Well, my daughter still went to daycare and I had a few hours to go outside and fuss about. Here's the plateful of goodness I was able to rustle up: There's Mexican goodness, Aussie finery, Cady plumage, Dryhead, a reworked Christmas tree agate (hate those scratches you notice when you think you're done...), two from Chuckwalla Springs, and a couple from a place called Herorthere. For dessert I have a piece of blueberry pie: Here's the crust: and a view from either side: and (It's the red moss from the S. Cady's) I also cut a few things Saturday morning - here's just a couple: Mexican - from the estate giveaway: And a couple Aussie: Thanks for looking and I'm sorry I lied...I promise to be more truthful about future postings in the future. (Maybe) Lowell

That pie slice is fantastic! Is there really a place called Hereorthere? Nate

Man! And I am on a diet. Luscious! Easy on the eyes, but hard on the teeth. Very nice, Ken
PS Nate, hereorthere is where you store your leaverite.

Wow! That's a yummy looking plate of agate all right! Don't those Queenies piss you off? Man, so many of them get those fractures when cut. I'll bet from all the Queenies I've cut, I'd be lucky to have 10% be without fractures and often, fractures which show up initially as not being too bad, turn out to actually travel across the agate and get worse with time. Got to say that Queenies do have some unusual colors though and if you get a good one it's very cool.....Mel

Those are nice pieces in the bowl (especially the Dryhead) and that blueberry pie is awesome. Garry
