"Were ya now?" I replied, "Small world ain't it?" Interesting who one can run into when chasing down a craigslist ad. Hint: She had over 2,000 posts and lives in Florida. More to follow as I unload the truck and get some pictures ...

Please don't say Helen the Horrible??? Once you've picked up all the rocks, coral and equipment you went for, would you be so kind as to do a memory wipe on her? Lol. Be nice to keep it "used to be."
OMG, yes, small world.

Now I can hide a milk crate or two of rocks, but where the heck am I supposed to stash 2 more 15 lb tumblers and another 15" vibrating lap?
2 hours to figure it out.
NINE 15 pound tumblers now...
"Hi! My name is Bob and I'm an _____?______."
I can't find Rock Tumblers Anonymous in the phone book!
*sigh*

The post office can help you hide them! Just go there with the tumblers etc and give them my address and they will be nice and help you not get in trouble with your wife.

The post office was actually a pleasant bonus today. Stopped by there on my way home and shipped a LFRB that I didn't think they would take because the top flaps wouldn't close together. Darn flaps were a couple inches apart, but an insane amount of tape hid it well. Or it was all my sweet talking the ladies at the counter! Off to wash rocks and look for hiding places!

Funny thing, she has bins of rocks with names on them of members here. These are from ________ and these are from _________. And I'm thinking - these names sure seem familiar!

captbobGotta ask... Are you in such a good mood cause she's purdy or cause she was selling her stuff to you ππ? Hiding tips: Make room for new small equipment in your locked truck tool box. Over the next few weeks bring out a piece at a time and hide it in plain site amongst the other stuff. She'll never notice!

LOL I thought she was an angel! Her husband was also a bunch of fun to chat with as I sorted through boxes, bins and buckets of rocks. Folks were a real pleasure to meet and deal with. And traffic (80+ mile round trip) wasn't bad. I'm in a good mood because I have some nice equipment to play with, and a wheelbarrow full of quality rocks to wash and sort. Plus, my 3rd box of St. John's Flower agate this month showed up in the mail today, and I just worked a deal for a bunch more!
