...We will be leaving shortly, to go visit a friend and see his collection. Trying to pay our respects and look at minerals. We know we will have most of Sunday, but there are so many people to see and minerals to drool over!

Hi Gail,
Thank you so much for taking the time to document and share your impressions of the show. It's a long way from home and I just love that we're all invited to come along and share in the fun. Lots of smiling familiar faces and great rocks 100% complimented by Fred and Helen's wonderful featured display. Your the best, thank you so much!
John
