Stopped by to see Robert Friday, here is a little bit of what I brought home.

Chryscola and I don't rememberorite.

I am falling head over heals for Chryscola, but my banker called today and told me it was only a crush and to get over it!

Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!

I think the idontknowite is stromatolite from around Wamsutter, Wyoming. I just sawed a big hunk and mine's similar but a bit darker in color....Mel

Nice cabs. Thanks for posting pix of Chryscola...I've only seen pix of it in the rough and was wondering what it looked like polished. I don't have a problem with my Banker & Chryscola yet, because everytime I've tried to get some on eBay, I've been out bid. Ah well, maybe someday.

I was also wondering if anyone else sees a dog's head or maybe a steer's skull in the fourth cab--the beautiful earthy brown one on the lower right.

And Mother Earth spoke to me about her children and Lo! there were the rocks and minerals, the geodes and thundereggs, the crystals and agates. And I clasped them close to my heart. And Mother Earth smiled and welcomed me into her family. And I played with all the children in joy and peace forever as we all tumbled about.

That stuff can sometimes be a difficult stone to polish. The others are nice too.
