Several of these have been in process for months, as I haven't had much time at home until the last couple of weeks. First up a couple of Montana Agates Next 2 pieces of some very interesting magnetic serpentine from Clear Creek CA An unknown agate that I might have gotten from stoner, or else the infamous 50cent/lb sale Tiffany Stone from Freeform Shain Hearst/Eel River Jasper from near Willits, CA Some interesting Ocean Jasper, more wavy instead of the usual orbicular formations An awesome piece of green moss agate from the 50cent/lb sale Another piece of Idunnoite Another from the Hearst location on the Eel River Snowdog or catmandew one of you guys- I can't seem to remember which gave me this at Burro Creek Also from the 50c/lb sale- I came home with a fairly large chunk of this microcrystaline quarx in Onyx Some Lapis Lazuli And finally a piece of Burro Creek purple, no I didn't find this on the field trip, this also came from the 50c/lb sale, but it looked crusty and white on the outside, so I was really amazed to see how vivid the purple inside it was, I have quite a few more slabettes of this stuff, it is simply amazing! now I need to get after getting that 18" saw sorted out... it might be a while before I get to post more cabs.....

Wow! I have got to make another trip out into that Clear Creek area. Interesting cabs you've cut from the serpentine. Looks like you got a good shine on them too which can be very challenging....Mel

LOL.. ... ;D Sorry had to ask..Still a great post!! Love that tiffany and Lapis .. ;D Roxy

Hey Roxy- they are all clickable thumbnails, so if you like one you can get the full screen version by clicking on it, but this way it doesn't take 10 minutes for the thread to load.

Thanks everybody- Roxy- actually I learned it from folks here, in photobucket, select the items you want to post, then scroll to the bottom of the album page and hit "Generate HTML and IMG code".
The lines of code for thumbnails are huge, but after posting a few you'll get the hang of working around them-
