Larry, and he is a gem, was in Lancaster on business and we got to meet him! We met at Lancaster's PA Dutch heartland, and had a nice dinner which Larry treated us to, and we exchanged some rocks in the parking lot, and got to see some of his awesome cabbing and silver work! Larry it was a pleasure meeting you and such a fun night! I had to wait for a sunny day to take the pics of all the rocks! I sure hope our paths cross again soon! Thank you for such a lovely visit! Amber & Tony Me and Larry! Belt buckle blanks for us Blue dop wax, Larry assured me I can use this without fail! A heart plaque hanging in my shop! Some awesome rocks and slabs! a huge hunk of beautiful Biggs Colorful Ohio Flint nice slabs of red Imperial jasper This slab is really cool if anyone can ID? Amber

Hey Guys,
Well the unknown slab is Marston Jaspagate...dug a few years back at the ranch during Ashwood's Rockstock..neat stuff to work!! The blue dop wax was passed on to me from a gov't job...secret stuff that a friend was kind enough to share with me...he's also the one who passed along the heart template. Tony and Amber were such a neat couple I thought the heart would mark the beginning of their partnership. Larry

It was a wonderful night. I always enjoy meeting RTHers and was glad we could hook up with Larry. It was fun to swap rock stories and share in eating lots of fat laden PA dutch food. He did give us some beautiful rocks but the highlight of the evening was seeing his silver work. His designs were wonderful and workmanship top notch. I just wish I had better lighting than his trunk light. Larry thanks so much for dinner. Next time you are out this way it will be our treat.

Very cool! Good to see you all. Love seeing RTH hookups. Larry, the heart was a sweet thing to do and undoubtedly came from your own heart. Jo
