It's midnight, will continue Saturday when I get a chance. It was an exhausting day, lots of standing and talking, looking at displays and minerals for sale. It was also a day of having far too many requests for us to come see minerals. We just can't see it all, try as we might. So if we missed any friend's booths, we do apologize. Never enough time!!!
