Hey gang, did you give up on me? Sometimes life just gets in the way of things, but I've been keeping busy and still cutting cabs. I thought I'd break my posting down to types of stones, so here are the plume(and others) agates and the orbicular jaspers.

Okay, I think I'll stop with the plumes, I hadn't realized how long it's been since I posted anything on here. I'll start a new post with some of the other stuff.

Great looking cabs, Ed! And great to hear you are still cabbing. In fact I had no doubds about that: once a cabber, always a cabber. And the beauty of those cabs also says you never stopped cabbing. Very hard to pick favorites, but I still mannaged to choose the 3rd one from the start and the 3rd one from the end.

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

Looking forward to your next group of cabs.

Thanks everyone. I always try to stop in at least once a week, but I haven't been home much on weekends and just too tired to look at a computer screen the rest of the time. I'll post the orbs and some others a little later today. Stay tuned!
