I just got home from work about 20 minutes ago and am getting settled in.

The doorbell rings and its FedEx with a big box. I haven't ordered anything.

Then I look at the return label .... The RockShed .... My jaw drops ...

A very good friend of mine in Lousianna bought me a twin 3lb barrel Lortone (33B) tumbler. I can't stop crying ......

Also in the box are three bags of stones .... mixed rock, medium mixed rock, and a 3A kit (?), jewelry goodies, plastic pellets, 2 big bags of grit and 2 big bags of polish.

How does one say thank you to another for such an awesome gift?!!

Now .... I feel like I can play along with the big kids .... ;D

I am so stoked right now!!!

You can stare at a rock for hours and never see the same thing twice.
