Well that seemed quick! 🪨📦 Box on the move already! pebblesky Thanks for the pics. Answered my question about whether or not stuff might be labeled or if we’ll need to identify it ourselves. Looks like some is and some other more commonly known ones aren’t. Will be fun! Most are labeled but the markers on some of the plastic bags are smeared. I guess that green/blue tumble bag is Turquoise, but not sure. the green blue is arizona shattuckite for tumbling

I’ve received the box, and have thoroughly enjoyed examining all.
I’ve selected a handful to keep, and am working on adding new goodies to the box. I like this job!
Computer problems have prevented the transfer of photos to computer to post. I think I can post photos soon, and have the box in the mail by Friday. I’ll let you know.

I believe we are up next. Nate NDK and I are flying out to California in 2 weeks. If there is a chance it won't be here by the 7th, we may need to swap spots

Nah, I’m just kidding, and I’d do the same. Would suck to have it show up while gone. Then even risk having someone come by and steal it off the front porch. Also… I believe I’m after you. Don’t feel rushed to get it out to me if you don’t have the time. I won’t sweat it.

This is what I added: flic.kr/p/2pAX2dHI'll fix this if I can, and add what I removed from the box. Hmmm. I'll try again. Flickr has changed since I last used it a year or so ago! From top left is amethyst sage 2, and "lace" Jimite much more colorful than photo show, 2 tiger eyes, and ? ? (beneath Jimite) wood, turquoise-color rock.

Oh and I took the liberty and put everything in a new box and put the smaller bags inside a larger one. There is a slab of Oregon butte agate that is broken

It looks like it’s coming to you next, realrockhound! I think it’s safe to say that we’re looking forward to seeing what you do with the box!

Among other stuff. Probably throw a couple slabs of Chinese jasper in as well. Should all be good stuff I think others will want 🤷

Then I’ll get your address and send it your way. I barely took the face off two of the vistaites so people can see what’s inside. That stuff in the rough looks like complete trash rock until it’s cut open. I should have it shipped within 2 days of receiving the package.
