these were some of the last stones i had on dop sticks, now all dop sticks are free and i can start another cycle of cabbing!

here are some freeform picasso marble pieces, some crazy lace (these were supposed to be earrings when i first cut them, but doming them, they turned out not to match so well), a 10 x 14mm piece of some sort of banded agate and a 18 x 13mm oval of what i thought was Bird of Paradise agate, but Mel corrected me (on several occasions if i remember) but i can't find the thread, maybe he said cathedral agate? don't remember....or is that selective memory...

ANYWAY:

close up :

thanks for looking!

Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!

	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.

	Rocks choose their owners, but they allow us the joy of believing to the contrary.

	Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. Matthew 7:24-25

	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...
