Here's my two cases for my club's show this past weekend. I don't like the photos I stuck inside the cases - I forgot my two sided tape so I had to sort of jam them in. Eh - live and learn. I hope you enjoy. Lowell Domestic:     International:    |

Wonderful job. My home cases are so cluttered. I can't seem to stop myself from adding more and more. You have such a clean display, yet you have so many eye-catching specimens there.

Great display of some amazing specimens.
Mel, have you such a sharp sight to spot what's written on those labels, or do you rely on your encyclopedic knowledge about rocks?

Thanks for all the kind words!
Mel - I hope you like the display, there's quite a bit from your back yard sitting in the Mexican section. The Amethyst came from the Smithsonian Museum a couple years back. The paul bunyon was a "what the hey?" I bought in with a pile of slabs and when I dusted it off at home, I found it was polished.
Peachfront - I have four chances a year to display - the three local clubs and the county fair - so I've learned to keep my display relatively clutter-free. I know I have a chance to rotate my basic display every couple of months so I don't feel compelled to put all my stuff in it. It's also taken me 5 years to finally figure out how I like my backing. Next one is in April. I'm doing Thundereggs at the Conejo Club's show.
Paul,
Karen loves her jeep, but we haven't taken it out to the desert yet!
Thanks again to all for you compliments.
Lowell
