Show is in Wickenburg, Arizona this weekend (Nov 24 & 25), not sure of times. The show has been moved from the Community Center over to Hassayampa Elementary School. Something is wrong with the roof at the Community Center so they had to move the show really quickly! If you need directions, call me. PM me for my phone number. I am not in the show but will be there in the morning to shop. Past years have shown this to be a pretty big show for a small town!! Sheri

I am not set up at the show Milto, I just live in Wickenburg and went to the show this morning. If anyone is coming up from Phoenix, you drive right past my house! I live on Hwy 60 shortly after the speed limit drops to 45 and the divided hwy ends!!

Ahh, thanks for the pictures, I feel better now...lol. Pretty cool looking slabs for a great price. Ed, I think you are thinking of Gold Rush Days in February, not a rock show but lots of vendors with lots of stuff for sale.

Just came back from show, drove 300 miles but had a good time. First time at show alot, did I mention a lot of finished jewelry, few slab sellers. As all shows some were very proud of their slabs, some reasonable and still had quality, some poor quality but very reasonable(blue bucket). A co out of Tucson, Kastner Gem and supply only lapidary supply co I found, very reasonable. Ended up buying Magnisium block, saw cool and 10 smaller slabs, nothing exotic but happy with purchases. Would surely suggest anyone in the area including Pheonix to plan on going in 2013,

Kastners are nice folks. They are taking our place at Apache Junction show in Mesa in February. They do Cottonwood, Yuma, Phoenix,and several other AZ shows that I know of.

Yes Sheri they had 2 25 cent buckets. I ended up with 8 small pieces, 4 montana type agates and various others. What I really enjoyed was talking about his mine and looking at pictures of his mine. Interesting man and story. Sure wish I could have met you!!
Was hoping to pick up some Burro but no one had any. Next time.
