We will be there with some of our jewelry and rocks we have collected too. Hope to see some one from the board out there. This will be 'Banjo Creeks' first bona fide show, so wish us luck.

First day under our belt. A beautiful day at the local Community Colleg and our first show. It was incredibly hard not to spend more than we made. There is a ton of mouth watering stuff for sale here. Way too much to even begin to mention. I got some great Fire Agates and saw some of the very newest finds of rocks out there. Met up with 'Stones that Rock' (Ralph and Maryann) and 'Rock Hobbit' (Sheri). A good time was had by all and now it is time to regroup for round #2.
-Mr. and Mrs Banjo Creek
Take care!

Hey I tried my bestest to get over there.. and of course.. as you know.. I did get lost .. I even tried to call for help.. after I went around on that stupid loop about four times each time missing something and couldn't get off.. OH and then I got on the I17 heading out of town.. omg by the time I realized I wasn't in phx anymore I was half way on the other side.. and since I seen no flares.. tried to call hobbit.. but by then it was too late.. I was just glad to finally recognize a main street and headed back home.. LOL.. So .. ONce again.. Today I'll Try to venture out that way.. hopefully with good instructions.. start the fire.. smoke signals whatever .. cuz i'm gonna need all the help I can get to find you guys.. ;D
