Well i only had time to photograph the best i found this year (and possibly all time best)... I may take photos of each individual piece later on... might put a few back in the tumbler also.

Great colors on those & a nice shine. If it were me, I'd round them out some more, but it's amatter of taste.

Some might. I have been surprised, though, at how well some of those fractured jaspers actually hold together. Those are nice and look like a lot of my tumbles. Of late I've been a little more ruthless in my culling. The ones that break up become smaller, at some point they become driveway gravel. I've got some around here a lot uglier thanb those.

Colorful tumbles, glennz01! Are any of them agates? The pretty last one kinda looks like an agate?
(any help on the 6 Wheeler yet?)

That's good news, glennz01! Have you turned it on yet? Sure hope you get a chance to set up your water system (with pics) soon.
