I came across this beautiful Brazilian Agate during Crystal Pacificas in person show and I manager to snag this for one of my customers before someone else got it!

I was finally lucky enough to get a single dragonscale calcite - These calcites are from the Sweetwater Mine in Missouri. It's really hard to find these for a decent price.
I never thought I'd be able to get one!

This is a Moroccan trilobite, who I'm naming Bruno.

Because poor Bruno here has been through a lot.
I accidentally broke off his arm - so I decided to fix it.

Which i did and it looked FANTASTIC.

BUT then, the microscope I was using FELL OFF AND LANDED ON BRUNO!
This happened literally immediately after fixing him.
Broke off the arm I just fixed and broke off the left arm into two pieces.
It was wild.

So, I got Amy to assist to help make the repairs.
Wasn't as nice as the first time and the left arm was wonky.

But after she left and went back to bed - I didn't like the new repairs and decided to undo all the repairs and start over from scratch.
With the help of thick starbond, museum putty to act as another set of hands, and instacure - I managed to fix the wonky arm and the other repair and make Bruno almost as good as new.

Today, we are uncovering a 52 MILLION year old fossil from the Green River Formation in Kemmerer, Wyoming.
This particular fish came from the Fossil Lake Safari Quarry!

Next door is the American Fossil Quarry and they have equally as nice fish and wonderful people that run it. I recommend both quarries.

There is also Ulrich's Fossil Gallery - that one does require a reservation in advance for the quarry dig!

Here is the play list of my trips there:
