Howdy folks, Not much but I did manage to cut a couple more Rio Grande agates whie I was running the weedeater yesterday. Here are some pics. Thanks for looking.....Mel Actually more of a brecciated jasper. One big fracture but still , I like the colors. Rarest color of Rio Grande agate. I've only ever found two and none of them big. Suspect these rolled in from the Needle Peak region of Texas eons past. The white spots are actually turquoise blue but dang, these almost always seem to have moss that is too darn compact and dense. Closer look:

I like that moldy dill pickle you found in the back of your refrigerator.
