Hi everyone, Iceland is a GREAT place, gorgeous Country, beautiful people with a flowing language, and crystal clear water! Before I left, Rocklicker(Steve) stopped by and left a box of Matra Mountain agate nodules(Hungarian) and here are just a few of them. Here's some more I've done since I've been back. Couldn't get a good photo of this, it's Crown of Psilomelane Poppy Jasper Dino Bone Indonesian Sagenite with a natural crystal edge. Tahoma Agate Varacsite And this one is a Blue agate from Anderson Dam in Morgan Hill, Ca. This material hasn't been found in many years. This rough was from an old timer's estate sale. I'm trying a new photo setup, so please bear with the photos until I get it right.

I'd love to see pics of Iceland. Great cabs as usual, the blue agate is my fave followed closely by that sagenite.

Thanks everyone for the welcome home and the kind words about the cabs and the photos. Now, about the Iceland photos, I'm going to post some "teaser photos" in the picture section, but I've got 362 photos to review and it's time consuming! Check out the picture section for now!

Great stones Ed! That last one is a beauty and kind of reminds me of some of the plasma agate from Clear Creek in San Benito county....Mel
