Ok, I had a bib this time but it didn't help! Wow what a totally
awesome haul you made, everything looks fabulous. Do you have
any idea at all what the stuff is or just slabs of whatever?

I am so jealous!! ... but very happy for you.

Good thing is, we are going back to Cedarberg in a week for some flea market thing, which is down the street from the Gem Shop...

I really don't know what I'm gonna do. I have so much, I guess I'm gonna try to cut some shapes and tumble them.
Cher, you bet your but, I'm going back to the G.S. I have to get enough to keep me going through the winter, when I get laid off.
