Gem and Mineral Show

Ok, this post is LONG overdue, but here we go-

back in February, we went to the Gem and Mineral Show here in Tucson. This is the largest Gem show in the WORLD! People from all over the world were there and booths were set up all over town. It was really fascinating and a dream come true for Ken's inner child :-)

I got this beautiful bracelet- the flowers are carved Jade.
Ken successfully bargained with a vendor and we purchased this piece of Picture Jasper for our home.
I'm telling ya, the stuff here was just crazy huge!
Yes, those are coffee tables made from huge geodes. These things were selling for a few thousand dollars each!
If we were going to be staying in Tucson, we definitely would have made some people come visit to go to the show again. It was really cool!
