I didn't reach my goal of 20 cabs this week but did manage a few nice looking pieces. We're now preparing the trailer to leave tomorrow to meet friends in the N.Cady's tomorrow so these will be the last ones I get done in April. More Black Rock Desert thunderegg plume agate ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125239-7727de54-me.jpg) ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125233-3a5878fa-me.jpg) Kind of an awkward top - didn't turn out like I envisioned... ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125228-30ffc475-me.jpg) I'm normally very much against spending a lot of time on a cab with obvious cracks but the sparkling druzy in this one was just too beautiful to pass up. ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125240-f3e9a33c-me.jpg) I was told this was Ochoco tube agate rare 'rose' color ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125225-94b2a62a-me.jpg) another McDermitt 79 Bed plume agate from Aaron ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125238-8d3d1cae-me.jpg) Double sided drilled pendant - flat both sides ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125229-b0c617d8-me.jpg) Morgan Hill poppy jasper - kind of crackly on the surface ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125237-20fc56d0-me.jpg) Graveyard Point plume agate - haven't done one of these in a while ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125234-b0ff84d5-me.jpg) Blue/green moss agate ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125223-27f913c9-me.jpg) Blue DeBiggschutes ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125232-844c5150-me.jpg) Finally, several Leopardskin jaspers just to give my beat up hands a break ![(lol)](//storage.proboards.com/1258779/images/hyOivrcWsQyVjSKtYIub.gif) These came from several slabs of a nice rosey/orange variety I came into recently. ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125231-54919138-me.jpg) ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125236-8147b530-me.jpg) ![](http://rockshow.rocktumblinghobby.com/i.php?/upload/2018/04/26/20180426125227-44eb2155-me.jpg) Thanks fer lookin y'all!

![(rofl)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/rofl.png) I'd call that one a definite Deschutes. The pink Ochoco Tube is spectacular! I've seen some with the gold holding agate, but not with the pink = very colorful.

I like them all, of course, but those thundereggs are all bad ass. I like the tube agate and I like the morgan hill probably the best. Very nice!

Very, very nice! Did I say very?
The Black Rock t-eggs are beautiful. The McDermitt has some amazing colors. That leopard skin has awesome colors.
Which is my favorite? Yes.

Beautiful! All of them. The Deschutes is ny favorite, but some others follow closely. I also like the way you pictured them, they stand out very well.

Those #79 t-eggs knock my neck dead in the dirt. Plumes and purple fortifications?
Wow....
Is he the same miner that claimed up the gary green?

Yes - that's what I'm just hearing too - although I was there last month and didn't see any new claim markers or evidence of deep digging with equipment. No harm done either way - we just pick up float which it is my understanding is still allowed even on claimed areas.
