Fantastic group of cabs there 'stoner'. Red Coral Horn is best I have seen in years. Laguna is always a favorite of mine....great shape. Unbelievable Covelo Poppy jasper. Red Condor is another favorite, love the deep colors

Terrific job, Ed! Love them all (love what you did with that Montana!), but I think I'm going to have to go with the second Willow Creek. It's really close, though!

Wow! Fireworks is right! Love the Covelo Poppy Jasper ( I've only seen a couple pieces ever. I used to deerhunt there and was always looking but never found a trace, just plain old red jasper) the coral and that second Willow Creek.....Mel

What a show! Thanks for the great fireworks. Some were cancelled last night but compared to this, I didn't miss anything.

ps .... Stoner .... could you do me a favor please ...
Look at my recent post on my first finished vibe batch. There are two posts as there were almost 100 pictures ... Let me know if you see any of the red moss in my pics. I did not know there was a "red" moss. I do not know if I do, but it would be cool if I did, considering I do not know more than 3/4's the ID's for my batch.
I learn a little everyday!
Thank you so much

Ed, thank you for posting such an impecably beautiful batch. I hope we're not supposed to choose a favorite among them'cause it's impossible. Sorry if this will stir some other kind of dialogues, but that Bruneau really reminds me about the Rubensian paintings Adrian |

ED:
I was thinking last 4th of July I was at your house! Man that red condor is something, and the willow creek and laguna, all are just as beautiful as always!

It certainly is a crescendo with quite the finish. Very impressive. I am bothered by that bruneau though as it seems to have an attitude problem. The little bugger mooned me. ;D
