Hi all! I really enjoy these contests and wish to have my own, so here goes. I have here three 2 lb bags of "tumble" sized rough I've collected throughout the state recently. They are the Maricopa green quartz/jasper, Lake Pleasant chalcedony roses, and a mix of Bouse jasper and agate. The contest is simple. Tell me how many pieces total are in this lot and you win it all! If there is no correct answer by 12 midnight, Sunday the 14th, then the one who comes closest without going over is the winner. Thanks a bunch and good luck!

	It's not low self esteem -- there are rocks down there.

	Tumbling is not just a hobby, its a way of life, a sense of peace, although sometimes frustrating it still brings warmth to yourself and others around you.
