                            Nice Bill!! Please understand I don't comment on every one but I NEVER miss one. I have used several as my screensaver and still enjoy seeing new ones. I also particularly enjoy your descriptions of them. Keep 'em coming for my viewing pleasure!

                              Thank you Bill for the beauty, knowledge and dedication you have shared in the forum. I'll be waiting for the day when you post the next egg. As always, happy digging!

                              Sooooooooo... I decided to open up this post since it had allot of views, and I'm sure glad I did!!! Those are some of the most beautiful works of art I have EVER seen!!! I think we all need to get together, charter a bus, and head down to do some digging for eggs of our own.

                              Some of those would be really pretty for cutting into thin slivers and turning them into sun catchers. I can only imagine how beautiful they would look with sunlight shining through them.
                              Can't wait to see more!!! Thank you for the spectacular show... Jeff

                                It apparently is a good time for Bill to take some Bill time.
                                I have seen some similar to Bills thin cut into wafers and displayed as window charms.
                                Rarely do any of them come close to what Bill has graced our site with.

                                Thanks for bumping this up Jessy. Bill hasn't logged on for over a year. I PM'd him a couple months back but got no response.
