Crappy pix. Sorry. Gotta dig out the ole Sony and fire it up. But here is some stuff from last weekend.
Pet wood

and more wood

a couple of softer Imnotsureite

Woodward Ranch plume. Bad soft spot, but I could not resist

Granite, yup plain old simple granite

Labradorite caught a little flash in that silver area.

Adventurine

Some green something or other Soft material

Clear agate, not sure what kind

And a corpolite (not from my new stuff)

I can't tell if thats some Gneiss Schist, or that Schist is Gneiss. All I know is don't take it for Granite

Your labradorite is actually larvakite "Norwegian Moonstone". I like the granite and soft green material. Is it serpentine?

They look just like mine always do! LOL I really like your banded poop! Pretty neat banding in that one in particular.

You've been busy! Nice group of cabs, stefan.

"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."

You are indeed correct as this was from a piece of busted countertop that I some how squired (came in a box of rocks). Also the green rock could be serpentine.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
