Mr. Jeremy wow wow wow, just watched Hellboy and #5 is going to cause me not to sleep tonight. I think I might be back in Conroe in a week or so. We'll have to get together and you can teach me something about photography and rocks.

What are you guys speaking, TexMex? Some RTH members collect rocks on smuggling runs Mike. Collecting is a front for illicit activity and Tex-Mex language is required. I think Jeremy works the Texas and Arizona border. His collecting areas:

You know there is American folks to assist the border crossers MrMike. You know, the ones w/all the money and fire power. The mules are all toting the stash, to loaded for guns. It's the receiving bunch on the US side to fear. stash behind the seat of Jeremy's P/U truck

Batch of beauties Jeremy. What is #29? Thanks, Mike! Not sure what 29 is, but it's definitely one of my favorites! Disapointed that there were a few areas that undercut late in the process. Pretty sure I got it from AzRockGeek. It was a fairly small rock and only get a few slices out of it.

It's always a treat to see your work, Jeremy. I love them all, but ocean jasper is my favorite. That's a nice one! Thanks, Rob! Wish I had more of that Ocean Jasper to play with!

Two goals for me; 1 - Tumble as well as this, 2 - Take Pictures as nice as these. Some very nice tumbles and very well photographed. Good job Jeremy. H Thanks, Hank! At least your goals are extremely attainable! Still need to get you out to hunt the San Jacinto!

What is number 21? I have found quite a few pieces that resemble it, but am not sure what they are. These tumbles are great. I can't pick a favorite. Thanks! Pretty sure it's a black plume agate from the Marfa / Alpine area, in West Texas. Post a few photos of your finds and where they were picked up. More than likely someone will know what they are.

Believe it or not, I think that OJ came from you in a trade! It's probably a very close relative!
