Mama got tired of tripping over boxes of specimens, and bought me a cabinet for them. The cabinet. Base shelf. Bottom glass shelf. Second shelf. Third shelf. Got lots more specimens to put in there yet. Don

Gotta get it filled quick. Mama already said it was too nice to fill with rocks. If I don't look out, she'll start stuffing it with ceramic raccoons. lol

Nice looking cabinet Don. Thats a nice looking collection you are building up. Now hurry up and leave more boxes laying around and maybe she will buy you another one!

Soon as I fill this one Bob. lol. The boxes will start building up again. Hey Bob, Mama and her mom are gonna be in your neck of the woods from Wednesday afternoon until around noon on Sunday. They'll be staying in a cabin at Hart Ranch. DB already knows they're gonna be there. He'll be sending some stuff back with them, that he picked up in Arizona for me.

Very nice cabinet Don!! You are going to have a lot of fun filling that up:). Looks like you might be able to squeeze a 2nd cabinet in next to it too... just saying... .

Only took 25 years to convince the wife to buy me this one. Lights are set up like one of those lamps you touch to turn on. It's a 3 way light. Just touch the top hinge.

Great display Don - However the thing that amazes me more in your photo - how the heck did you get permission from the lady of the house to have your Genie on the Kitchen Counter? LOL

I saw that Genie too!! Start putting a bug in her ear for letting you put in a workshop for the Genie, and she can have the kitchen table back
