Wow! It's gorgeous.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
That pet wood is just as sexy as the music to the video!

Bob I love your Saturday pet wood videos. I hope you continue to favor us with one every Saturday for a long time to come.
If we were able to carry the love and tolerance shown here into the world as a whole and get anyone to follow the example set, who knows what could be born from that? Stonemon RIP
That brown wood is lighter than it usually looks. Did you bleach it or leave it in the sun?

Headed back to Hampton Butte in a few days, would like to find more casts and ones like this one!

Saturday is almost finished so I better intervene. This is a Hubbard Basin piece I'm using for a doorstop. I also shared it in another thread so hope I'm not being too redundant.

werejen: I need opinions on rocks that cannot safely be tumbled. I have found a lot of quartz/mix with nice edges that I do not want to lose. Some have told me to use lacquer on them, and others have said a clear coat nail polish. Thoughts?

ThomasT: The rare Double brood of Cicadas coming out now... last time this occurred Thomas Jefferson was President...

ThomasT: Cicadas 13- and 17-year emergence cycles align only once every 221 years... much rarer than a solar Eclipse. Next event will be in the year 2245 AD. Woohoo
