Congratulations agatewhisperer ! In a crowded field of beautiful creations you and hummingbirdstones turned it into quite the two-horse race like we have not really seen before. Both stones and others were gorgeous and worthy of winning but your Montana pushed it over the top. As before, please PM me your thoughts about a theme for our June contest as well as if something has caught your eye from the RTH Store.

Holy smokes, I'm speechless, thanks for everyone's support and tons of fantastic entries! That was a really fun contest to try something new. That was my first full dome cab and definitely not going to be my last!

Congrats agatewhisper on the win with that spectacular cab. Makes me want to look at my Montana agates again. Also it was a great group of entries this time around, great job all.

Indeed, and thanks! I think I'll be out of my league in the fossils competition seeing some of the fantastic pieces people have posted over time, but still going to try!
