Time to clean out the slab bucket again, I should not procrastinate so long between cleanings. First table Hidden Valley Jasper (the name makes me want to go get some chips and ranch dip!) Idontknowite, sure is pretty, big slab from Big Mo Left to right Blue Mustang, Willow Creek, Opalized wood (going to Harley to be made into weapons!) Morrisonite Something from the Utah pile, sure got lots going on in there, any ideas would be welcome. Blue Forest Petrified wood with the top of a mushroom jasper slab peeking out at bottom right Second table Biggs Black Bruneau Some Owyhee, not sure what kind A Morrisonite heel cut fresh off the saw Thanks for lookin...................Tony

I like your slab buckets but I think that bucket must be awfully big to hold all of those! WOW you have some really pretty slabs there! Fran

I love it all, but Morrisonite and Black Bruneau are very cool.

The biggs and the pet wood (what are those circles?) are enough to run my mouth dry...

Hmm, I've not seen length-wise slabs of blue forest wood before; I'm used to seeing specimens (logs, end polished) or width-wise slabs again as specimens. Everything else is really nice too!

Like as has been said, it is a treat to see the contents of your slab bucket. Question, is the source of the Blue Mustang now underwater? I remember reading about a jasper with a blue sky that is now, underwater, and could not remember which one it was, but it is somewhere in your neck of the woods. Woody

Woody, I don't think the Blue Mustang is under water, I think the gemshop still holds a claim on that one.
KJ, eventually it will get there, but I am terribly slow at getting stuff put on there. You see something that interests you just ask or make an offer. Actually alot more stuff gets sold through pm's here than what I put on my site.
