Hi all Here's the last of the winter cabs. First day of spring and it's time to get after the weeds before snake season. They grow so fast because it's 75 degrees between the storms. Some parts of soCal are predicted to get 6-10 inches of rain later this week.... First, here's a Walker Ranch. Australian Dentdritic Opalite. I thought about cutting this so the trees were upright, but the cab would have been pretty small Arizona Chrysocholla Copper Complex San Carlos Filament Lace Agate Cheetah Jasper And a few from the Singleton Ranch Some of the plumes are very translucent. Maybe sagenite Four colors of plumes in one (green, gold, black plus a row of white at the top) Looking different in the hand with more light getting in Another multi-colored plume cab With more light coming thru Thanks for looking. Time for Spring Cabs...LOL!!!

Believe it or not, I'm going with the Cheetah agate this time. I haven't seen any that I like so well. They are all great cabs, though.

Probably won't be enough to change your mind, though. I love to find materials that look a little different than the norm for that material.

I will second that Awesome!! It might make me a homer, but the Singleton Ranch material is hard to beat. It leaves me with a bit of an empty feeling knowing that the Ranch is now closed to collecting. At least I have a few buckets worth to cut through.

socalagatehound - Once again your plumes are making me smile. But the Cheetah agate is the winner today. Lynn

They're all beautiful and indeed, you are the King of Plumes! The Walker Ranch is the winner for me.
