ordered 10 MFRB's from PO yesterday. Soon as they get here, I'll sort so everyone gets equal kinds of stuff, fill and let you know! I know there's wonderstone, zebra, apache dendritic, stripey stuff whose name I no longer remember, rainbow obsidian, black jade, rosetta stone, serpentine, brazilian agate, misc agates, misc jaspers, oh geez, I can't possibly remember everything... good stuff tho! some are big slabs, some are small. all good.

Update. I'm trying to get boxes made up, but I need my garage to cool down a bit. 95 outside and 120+ in the garage... dangit.
It's so hot in there...
How hot is it?
So hot my laundry dries between the washer and the dryer! <g>

You bet..... We've been in the mid 90's for weeks, but today it's supposed to drop to the mid 70's because we'll get our first rain in almost 4 months. Only supposed to last one day, then back to hot and dry.... We're in extreme drought and they've closed all the forests and everything till we get rain later this year. Had a bear come down for food Tuesday, they darted him and will relocate to some mountains where there's food farther north..

Oh my. Welcome to my messy garage. So, I've got 5 boxes packed and ready to go. and many more left to box up, but my back said enough! So I gotta take a break. Thought it was a good time to show you pics of what I'm boxing, and how big a mistake I made when I said $40.... There's easily over $100 worth of slabs in each box so far. Bumblebee Jasper, wyoming jade, boulder opal, rosetta stone, crazy lace agate, obsidian, NM lolly rock, aka wonderstone, dino bone ( I call it dragon stone), and much much more. Some blue stuff, some green stuff, some brazilian agate, the list goes on..... years worth of buying and cutting. Anyway, here are the pics if I can get them to load.    |

OK. All boxed and ready to go.... I was able to cram all that you saw into 11 boxes. My mailman is gonna kill me....
And no, I don't know what is in which box with the exception of #11, which is loaded with all that was left on the table at the end. no cushioning. But hundreds of potential cabs are in there.... literally! Mostly smaller slabs that someone without a trim saw will really appreciate. Or someone with, no matter.
So, starting now, post which box you want, numbered 1 thru 11, then PM me your email address and I'll send you a paypal invoice including postage.
I did, however, try to pack as even variety as I could till I got tired and my back tried to assassinate me. So some boxes will be nicely cushioned and some will be a mix of cushioned with layers of loos on top. All good stuff tho. Don't do a quick look at the little ones, those are some of the best. wet em, don't forget em.
And someone will get a box with a paper towel wad in there. Those are special stones in that wad..... you will make your $$ back on just one of those pieces cabbed up.
And if you get your box and want to send me a tip... Cool!
So, let the frenzy begin!
