John,
Looks like you had some fun cutting up the rocks....but I think your son either didn't want to go fishing, or would have rather been rockhounding....:^))
He should be proud of that haul.

Wow, that is trout? It is huge, seriously nice haul both ways.
The mozarkite slabs make me want to quit the board, come back and enlist the help of
a ex gf, writer friend to win the contest. Oh geez was that out loud?
Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Spike

I really like those slabs. If the weather will just cooperate I can work on cutting some of my Mozarkite, too. (My work area is too exposed to the elements and the lightning has been vicious the past couple of days.)
I used to love to fish--the picture brings back some wonderful memories. Now I don't put a hook or bait on the line; just a sinker. I like the feel of the bobbing line and it gives the fish a better set of odds.
Thanks for sharing.

Tony, your some seriously high output. Its amazing the amount you cut up. I think your nephew is exhausted from catching those huge fish, looks like a great time!

Tony, nice slabs! Your nephew doesn't look too happy about all those fish, LOL. Here's some of what I'm sending you to cut:  All pet wood, except the piece on the lower left; apparently it's called black jade. Sorry, I did forget the ruler. From left to right, 12.5 inches; the 2 stacked in back left are 7 inches tall. If only the PO were open at midnight, you would already have these! |
