"HEY Jason is this anything good?" jasoninsdJason, again thank you for takin Randy and I out for a lovely morning looking for rocks. It was an ABSOLUTE pleasure meeting and spending time on the hills together. I cant wait to tumble the the media we collected, you Randy and I. I will be emptying a 6# and start tumbling. The bigger stuff going into the saw. I don't know how to express how much today meant to me.

nursetumbler Someone just recently posted a picture of a Fairburn banded agate that they cabbed and it turned out absolutely gorgeous. I can’t remember who, I’d have to dig through all my posts to find it…

nursetumbler - Kelly, it was a true pleasure to be able to go hounding today with you and your husband out at Railroad Buttes! You could have knocked me over with a feather when you offered to give me that Fairburn for taking you guys out. There was NO way I could or would have accepted it! That was your find...and I'm SO stoked you were able to find one!

I should have put my insecurities aside and took a photo but honestly I totally forgot to ask jasoninsd if he would.

I know he said not to but I feel bad that I found one in his site and he wouldn't take it. Don't you dare feel badly!! I have opportunities (pretty much) whenever I want to go out and find look for a Fairburn...whereas you do not! I don't begrudge you being the one to find it one bit!! nursetumbler jasoninsd That’s an awesome find Kelly! And I’m sure a very enjoyable time! One question though, where’s the group shot of all the happy faces?! Kelly said, "Hey, let's get a group photo!" and I said, "I'm having a really bad hair day, so I'd rather not!". So...it's really my fault we didn't take any pictures.

Congrats on the awesome find, Kelly nursetumbler! There's nothing better than meeting new friends and finding a treasure while doing it! I'm envious you got to go out hounding with jasoninsd. Someday Vince and and I will get up there to meet him and maybe find a Fairburn or go hounding Teepee Canyon. Hopefully we won't be too old by then to bend over and pick stuff up!

I got it and the weather and water here in Michigan went cold. Should have taken it out west for our hunt hey jasoninsd. Wait if I had been using it instead of bending over I would have not seen this beauty. Hey Jason that top pocket find has been in my jeans pocket since you last looked at it and it is shining up. I don't want it out of my pocket until I can get it somewhere safe where I wont loose it. Will that ruin it?
