Hey folks! I had the good fortune to meet up with Rodney (lonetreestudios) last weekend at an estate sale in Sun City. Definitely a great guy, and afterward I got to check out his killer collection of rocks and lapidary equipment, wow!! I picked up a few things at the sale including these slabs Dino ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9789.jpg) Cacoxenite ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9782-1.jpg) a neat little moss ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9807.jpg) ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9809.jpg) Also I just cut a couple nodules I picked up at the Rock A Rama show earlier this month Unknown, maybe Mexican ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9799.jpg) I believe this is a Condor ![](http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r74/beefjello/IMG_9796.jpg) Thanks for looking!

As usual you find the best rocks. That cocaxinite is one of the best examples I've seen.
