Very nice scores! I especially like the Dino bone - great color and pattern! Sometimes it seems that the smaller shows like this one are better than fighting the crowds at the big ones. There might not be much to chose from, but the quality of materials seems a little better. Be sure to post some pics of them finished!

Nice haul. I love the dino bone and that malachite is sweet. I'm going to a show this weekend but they won't have any rough and very few slabs, mostly specimens. Living in PA can be a real pain in the @$$ when it comes to getting good rocks.

Absolutely great haul, Love the Dino bone and the malachite. But the denritic just reminds me I have a preform setting next to my machine, I have been out there all day and do NOT want to go back tonight.
