A nice variety Jonathon, I especially like the plume and Moroccan agates and that lone pet wood. But the colors on this one stole the show

That is a really great looking batch of shiny rocks and quite the variety as well.
#'s 9&10 under the Bots section look like some lakers I have been rolling lately. A few more of those Bots could pass as lakers as well. Very cool stuff!

A few more of those Bots could pass as lakers as well. Very cool stuff! Those may in fact be Lakers, although I'm leaning towards them being Bots. I have tumbled quite a bit of both, sometimes together in the same batch. The are quite similar except Lakers tend to be red and brown, whereas Bots tend to be blue, gray, white, and pink. More white banding in Bots than Lakers unless you spend big money on high grade Lakers (which I do not). Most of the Bots shown here are the odd-ball ones that stood out as being different from the rest of their respective batches, either because of their color, or because of the eyes, tubes, etc... I have tumbled a ton of Botswana agates. They are tied with Bahia agates for my favorite rocks to tumble. Although Bots are not cheap, most banded nodular agates are even more expensive.

Very nice batch of perfect agates and petrified wood! I especially love the condor agates, out of this world amazing! Thanks for sharing.
