Hi all. Went to the gem andmineral show this afternoon and it was great. Saw some nice displays, nice jewelry, nice rocks and equipment. My wife had to leave for about 45mins-big mistake on her part. Leaving me alone at a rock show is like, well you know, kid-candy store-alone. Got a 220 diamond wheel for $79, some core drills, 25lbs of agates and jaspers for $10, a couple pieces of fire agate and poppy jasper. All in all, a very good day. And the wife wasn't even mad at me for spending that much money. Anyway, here's the pics. Banjo-Chinese Writing Rock And here's my haul of rocks Honey Agate Poppy Jasper Enjoy, Ed

Those are wonderful. That first geode - I'd have to keep that away from my mom ;D (boy I hope she doesn't read these threads - can I get banned for a comment like that?) Sorry Mark! Excellent Haul - I love the first picture of the Tufa - that would have made an excellent cab

Dang Ed I should have known better! Always put a bib on when looking at rock show picture posts. Sounds like you got some good deals on needed items and looks like you got a great deals on rough. That Honey agate is pretty, and I love the jasper. I can't wait to go to a show like that, have a few marked on my calendar for this summer. Thanks for the great pics Ed!!
