Hi Gail,
Just a note to say I thoroughly enjoyed your photos and write up about the show. Hopefully I will get back there for one of these shows.

Thank you everyone, it was a pleasure to take the time to do that for people who appreciate it.
And about that tourmaline? We only had it in our hands for a few minutes before handing it off for a base to be made, so I am glad I took photos so we could remember what it looked like too!
We have a smaller one from the same mine and it has given me great pleasure to view for the last t2 1/2 years so am happy to bring home "Papa" bear.
Still awaiting flats to arrive via mail, so will share anything interesting we found when I can photograph them. Am heading to the Harvard report to add more photos there, I had to take a breather as it is a lot of work to resize every photo. Go check out the new additions when you get a moment.

The Tourmaline deserve his one specially made base! It's probably one of the most beautiful Tourmalines that i ever seen (if not the most beautiful)!!!!!
By the away, your report about Harvard...wonderful!!
Thank you Gail!

Gail,

Thanks for the report. Even though I was there, it was still great to see pictures of what I missed. Also, the museum trip looked like a lot of fun. It was also great to see Jim and you again. I hope to make the Dallas show next year and would love to visit with you guys while there. I know you will be busy. By the way that tourmaline you picked up looks like a real killer. Wow - Nice!
