today i heard..knock, knock at my door, when i opened the door there was the mailman holdin a flat rate box, with a look on his face that said "this is heavy" now to a rockhound, that only meant one thing............ Oh Boy!!!!!!!!!! its rocks. I told him to just set it down as i can only lift 5 lbs, right now. when Mary Ann got back from the store, she seen the box immediately sitting by the door, pick it up and brought it in to me. We both opened it up as fast as we could, and to our amazment it was filled with many differnt kinds of beautiful rocks. I want to Thank Snowdog for the great, uplifting present. I can't wait to slice some of those up and start cabbing again. heres some pictures of what he sent. Oh,by the way, mary ann seen that tumble blue rock and poof it was gone. Between blue and purple it hard to keep that away from her. ;D ty again, your so kind and thoughtful. ralph and mary ann

Wowzers! Talk about temptation starin' you straight in the face!
You get yourself healthy first before you start working that stuff!!
That Snowdog's one heck of a guy ;D

you're supposed to only lift "two" of the small rounds ones each day -- then when you are done with them you will be strong enough to go to the bigger ones ! -- ;D ;D -- hope you heal in a hurry !!

Fabulous rock box Snowdog, Ralph I hope you feel better soon, and we look forward to seeing the results when you get the wheels spinning. Looks like you will have some nice stuff to go at, and do follow Snowdogs advice, start with the little 'uns and you'll be back to form in no time!!
Cheers,
Harry.
