Wow, #1, #9 and #23 (23 out of 26!!!) are my faves. I would also be tempted to cut into that sagenitic agate.
You have certainly reaped the rewards of your hounding efforts this summer! You've made it to the big leagues and left the rest of us far behind. Congrats!

I didn't even want to open Part 1 nor this one due to what I knew I'd expect to see. I'm glad I decided to check them out on a crappy day...it made me feel better. I'm gonna wait to open Part 1 cuz it might cause me to have sensory overload.  Magnificent Agates ;D :drool: and I would LOVE to hunt Lakers once in my lifetime. I'd be cutting some of them up at least a slight face cut and polish. Love those tight bandings...too bad so many are fractured internally. Still....Love the Lakers! Thanks for sharing and glad your hunting trips this year were successful. Not many more hunting days left I'm assuming. You know what I'm hinting at too...  Steve |

The Agate in the first pic is just begging to have a thin slice made into a beautiful pendent cab. And, you could face polish the remaining for display. Great collection! snow is comming, get'em while you can.
