Oh, I forgot that:
CONGRATULATIONS ON TWO MILLION VIEWS!
Well deserved! Not only because you have a great taste for aesthetics but also because you always provide so much information. About the specimens, their paragenesis, their exact size and weight, their provenance. I consider you a real mineral connoisseur who is an important member of our community. I hope you're doing well, please keep posting all the great stuff that made your collection thread so popular!

It has been three months since your last post with photos. I miss you.
A lot to do, little time and no new minerals since my Madan galena from november. But I look into the forum almost every day :-)
