Box arrived yesterday but I managed not to open it until this morning. Here is what I took: Here is what I put in: The cabs on the right of the first image are ready for groove-wrapping. The middle column are turitella, picasso, and corinthian granite (looks like garnet inside). And the row on the left has amazonite/orthoclase (beautiful shimmer as they move). The cab at the bottom is pietersite - mostly red/yellow but with just a taste of blue as well. Will get the box out by the weekend...

Hmmm, sounds like that might not make the best foundation for a house...

SHIFT!!

Yea, oopsie. I am in Q for the winter. I got a text message from my son's ex saying that a heavy box arrived today. Got to thinking and came here to check. Money and an address could be sent to Leah Brown and she will probably send it on for you. Please do not send it here because I do not have rocks to put in the box. Jim
