Since my Thursday is swamped, am posting some more of what I think are T-eggs. After all, to paraphrase a song, It's Thursday somewhere. What started my obsession with T-eggs and Geodes, over 50 years ago. Was given this by some Snowbird neighbors. They spent Summers on the lake in WI, 1/4 mile down the road from us. Winters in AZ. It is amazing I still have it after all these years.  I think this one was in a box from Tommy  These were in a box from toiv0 Not all are T-eggs, but most are.   From woodman Please excuse the Pet Wood in lower right. I think the one in upper left may be a geode, as it is light weight. Dunno about the other un cut ones.  Thanks for viewing a very small portion of my T-egg collection. |

 This is a backlit slice of a Baker thunderegg that I've used as my avatar for a long time. Viewed from the other side it is quite different and not nearly as scenic. |

So many beautiful eggs evryone has! I only have one. My friend brought it home from Washington. It's a really cool egg. I had to over expose the picture on my phone camera so you could see the details in the dark agate.  |

Thanks everyone for adding. I wish I had the time to respond to each one, but you outdid yourselves. Some are just incredible. I love woodman ’s four-cored (or maybe three cores, sitting on top of another egg) Richardson’s, and the double right below it. Breathtaking. @fern wood, I se the seal, too. |

 THUNDEREGG THURSDAY Let's bring a little science into the thread. Here's a mysterious specimen that probably isn't a thunder egg but is closely linked to how they are created. Who can tell us what we are looking at? I know that 1dave knows what it is.  |
