I have a soft spot for Michigan coppers ever since I collected there as a boy many years ago. I love the crystallization on your Ojibway copper - nice piece.

Thank you, Michael.

I wanted to comment on your visit to Lake Como and your lovely orthoclase specimen. Years ago when Gwen and I were at Lake Como with our son's class on spring break, we were in a room in a hotel on the lake that had no windows at all. The kids all got the best views !!! :-)

Hello to Laura.

Don: Those are great specimens and images. Wish I had known you had them I probably could have use one or two in my article. Very fine pieces. I am referring to the polyhedroids, of course. John _________________ John S. White aka Rondinaire
