Yesterday looked a lot like Christmas around here when the mailman showed up with not one, not two.. but three packages from super generous RTHers! Oh man I've had a field day going through everything and wanted to share some pix with you all ;D Spiritstone (Larry) sent a fantastic package with some Graveyard and Regency Plume, Amazon, Prairie Agate and a slabba Idontknowite Plus a beautifully polished piece of Morgan Hill Poppy and a botryoidal chalcedony pendant AND a couple gorgeous shell cabs, rainbow jade and green moss!! Thanks a bunch Larry!!! Fossilbrain (Jeff) sent an incredible package with a HUGE killer piece of fossil coral! Some great slabs and pieces of Mook, Nephrite, Onyx, some local stuff he found and a couple unknowns. The one top right is just outta site! AND the coolest piece of pet bone he dug up on the Peace River! Oh man how great is that! Thanks so much Jeff!!! As if that wasn't enough, Claimjumper (Bob) sent an arse kickin' package of rocks he found along the shores of the Great Lakes! Most all are fossiliferous and just fantastic! Rocks from Lake Michigan Including a few of these.. Petosky (?) Stones! AND rocks from Lake Huron and Superior! AND a CD with a whole buncha beautiful pics from Lake Michigan, rocks he's found, digs at various places, etc. Thanks bunches Bob!!! All three of ya just ROCK!!! You sure brightened up what was a wet gloomy day here in AZ. Thanks again and just remember.. what comes around..

Glad you liked it; the iddontknowite is Christmas tree agate. The suprise was for your surprise of the RTH sticker awhile back. So you are right what comes around goes around

Hey, I recognize that shell which is not a shell at all but really a rock that looks like a shell! That top-right one in the fifth pic looks like a slice off a meteorite or something! WICKED SCORE!!

Heh, glad you like what I had to spare - I did like Spirit Stone and was prompted by the sticker -- the ONLY sticker on my '64 Falcon, I might add
