Hey folks! I meant to post these a while back but this past month has been a whirlwind. Just some random pictures from our trip to Tucson at the end of January I know they have a problem with aliens down there but wasn't expecting this  Many stumps  Dragons  Purdy cabs  Not sure what you call these.. eggs?  Stibnite  Kyanite  Neat agate sculpture  Some nice Marra Mamba    Orbicular Granite and Tiger Iron  Some huge polished AZ wood     We got to meet Ricardo and Claudia and see their incredible agates  Amethyst cluster. That's a business card on it for size reference  Christa posing with a cathedral   |

What an awesome show! Thanks for the photos. Those "eggs" (torpedoes?) are interesting. Love the polished petrified wood stumps. Those were cool!

The"eggs", the tan with brown spots and splouches, are fertillity stones. I don't want my wife to touch one especially the big ones !!! We are 61 years old and we love babies but too old to have any now . . . . . . . I Hope  ) Still Digging in the Georgia read Dirt, Frankie |
