Got a little cabbing in on Saturday the crown jewel was this cab of agua nueva that I have been drooling over forever, finally at a local show a man had a slab for $24, but I should get 4 nice cabs out of it, packed the druzy with soap and I love it! Birds Eye Rhyolite Got this slab from Mary Ann, I thought she had nice material and this was a good example of it with the big EYES!!! I am so nuts up about this talk I am doing on Friday at Bobby's school so I thought I should make his teacher some Dino Poo and bone for inviting me. Every 3rd grade teacher should have some poo to wear, LOL. A little pity but my saw man wasn't here to cut more and the saws all have issues. These are from Ralph's rejects, they just needed to go back to the 220 wheel and some super glue and they are beauties! Dino Bone for teacher Amethyst Sage-Mary Ann has some nice slabs of this, I was thrilled to find this in the bag! They are the best, this one is big and I love it. Graveyard Plume Montana: Never saw a montana with mossy like filaments, this was just a striking piece, I am wearing it tomorrow with a leopard shirt, love this one, I am glad Mary Ann rejected it! Close up of filaments That's all still working on the talk, got 12 pages of handouts so far, LOL! Amber

I used to give all my teachers a generous amount of poo ;^) Those are nice, especially the Agua Nueva and Amy Sage.

The agua nueva, birdseye and the Montana are my favs. Your pictures are much better this time, guess your light box is better than a dirty dish rag on your dinning room table. lol Great work sweetie.

I always liked your Agua Nuevas Amber ;D That is one Purrrty Cab! I can see why you've been drooling over it for such a long time. I hope the teacher doesn't take insult when you give him the Poo! Great stuff! Steve
