    Ouch....my moms brother is a HUGE sports fan, to the point his life revolves around it, his sons obsess and now the grand kids obsess. He had a card collection from the late 50s - 1963, my grandmother threw them all away when she cleaned his room while he was in school. He never forgave her. I am pretty sure he had good ones in it knowing him.:(

    I just now bought this Lake Superior agate off Ebay. I will have a guy named Jason on Tik Tok grind it and polish it to make a very nice oval palm stone once it gets to me in the mail. The color is beautiful to me. It called to me and said "buy me" lol...

    That’s a very nice looking agate so it should look great when it’s polished.

    Some of the 2 tons of prairie agates I picked up spring of 2021 just for fun.

    Those are beautiful agates. I've always been fascinated with agate limb casts, here's the best one from my last rockhounding trip to eastern Oregon.

    Did you go to Glass Buttes?

    I did! That cast came from the Hampton Butte area, about 20 miles northwest of Glass Buttes.

    My Peugeot 504 Cabrio V6 built in 1976 with PRV engine. The most elegant car Pininferina ever designed. Look at its hip line! I am very attached to it and have visited the comic salons of Europe with it. It is in my possession since 1982.

    Just bought these 3 stones off Etsy. Coming from India so probably a month away from getting them. Septerian from Madagascar, and 2 chevron amethyst. Gonna have Jason on tik Tok cut, and grind and polish them for me.
