This is Bill Larson, am I right? This picture shows why he is such a renowned mineral connoisseur - he even choses the minerals suitable for his shirt ;-)

I can only tell you that I have amazing photos to come and exhaustion rules my ability to post! Wow. Been a great time so far. Today is set up day and we are putting in the three displays. That should tire us out!

Finally, life is settled down and I have gotten the photos organized, or somewhat organized at least. The drive home was uneventful and looooong. We had a marvelous time, good friends and good times !

Ah, finally....Saturday morning. The Westward Look show is still going on, we also manage a brief trip to the Inn Suites ( I can't bring myself to call is the Hotel Tucson...sorry. ) We also got a walk in, and a jaunt to the Desert Museum too, over the weekend and Monday...
Weather was beautiful too!
