Beauties! You do seem to have the rockhound magic touch no matter where you go.

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

Outstanding pieces, Brian! I seem to recall, some years back, that you found some in some landscaping rock along a fast-food drive through, as well. It's been a while since I've had time for the hobby and board so maybe I'm mixing things up! Nice pickups!

Paul great to see you back!

I'm thinking it was a Taco Bell in Albuquerque, but I'd have to dive back in the archives to be sure
