Howdy folks, Been real busy lately rounding up escaped horses. planing a horseback scavenger hunt for the gang, cooking for a weenie roast, rescuing critters and doing highway cleanup but I finally got a little time for rocks yesterday. Here are a few cuts: Lowell sent me a fantastic Dugway geode that has been sitting on my saw waiting to be cut for about a month. Cut it yesterday and I'm really pleased with this first Dugway in my collection. Sparkly crystals overlayed by a little layer of golden chalcedony. Pic doesn't catch the glitter well but it's a beauty! Thanks Lowell! Cut a little south Texas shrinkwood too, of course. Both of these are real solid. Think this black and blue one used to be some kind of palm. Closer look: Another less showy shrinkie. Still have a bunch of cuts to go on this piece and it seems to be getting fancier as I get into it.

The Geode is beautiful and on the one with the shadow inside there is quite a sparkle. I sure do love the shrinkwood though. The patterns in that stuff is awesome.
