;D Yeah the Denver show is the second largest( largest is the Tuson show) in the US. It is a Marty Zinn show . Always great. I will probably be there three days as it takes more time than that to see all of it. Thought I would let you see where I was yesterday  this smoky was taken 3 years ago from the same claim I was on yesterday  found this combo amozonite and smoky  here is a nice combo , the smoky was broken off but the break will polish and look great.  nice piece of flourite green/purple- need polishing  different piece of the same , just not able to get enough pieces to reassemble the biggie.  oh saw this neer the dig site  Dicky |

I go every year. Helps that I'm in Denver. Ihit the show on monday and thursday because I work the other days. I never go to the mercantile mart where the gem and mineral show is but the Holiday Inn and Quality Inn are 2 spots I go. The coliseum and the big place north of I70 (don't remember the name) are also good places. The 1 north of I70 has the laguna lace agate. Anyone coming this way pm me and I'll try and meet up and of course they'll be a peach in it for you. Just ask Ralph and Mary Ann if they're any good.

I believe the Martin Zinn show is only one of the shows in the Merchandise Mart cluster. There is a club show and a wholesale jewelry show also. And, lots of other shows all over town.
