OK, so it wasn't a complete surprise. I knew it was coming, but I didn't know when. Lynn, zarguy was kind and generous enough to send me a sample of Utah rocks. I think I was expecting a SFRB, but the mailman brought a medium stuffed with stuff that I had, for the most part, not seen in person. Sure wish I could get out the ol' Gene right about now! The pictures do no justice. Lots of really nice blanket jasper and a lot of very cool Carson City Agate Cedar City Agate, neither of which I have seen or worked with before. It'll be fun. Some moss which I am guessing is Holt Canyon. Some satin flash opal which is killing me to wait to cab. A couple orbs that I have no clue about. Some other things I don't know and last but NOT least- and I'm not sure how many of you know this, but Lynn is the designer, owner, and seller of a card game called Zar (zarguy, get it? ), He sent the game, too. I'm gonna try to play tonight if we have the time, but soon anyway. Thank you, Lynn. I really appreciate it.
Lots of great color here! First pic is all of it dry. The others are samples wet.

Wow! That’s a beautiful bunch of rocks. But I like them better after they tangle with rockjunquie. Might be a good spot to share my own story. El JeffA bought my last box of Montana’s. He then said he wanted to send a “little something” for us to play with on the new machine. My eyes got huge when it arrived. SFRB packed with slabs and goodies! Thank you Jeff!
