Didn't think of water. Sounds logical, along with the windex for shine.

what-s in Bethel that you'd go so far for.  Not much there at least in my experience my brother lives one town over in Danbury.  The Tappan Zee  toll just went up last week and you only have to pay one direction.  That was very good time you made :thumbup:



I went there to pick up a ginormous geode I bought on ebay.
It was cheaper/easier to pick it up being I still have my turbo-diesel VW. Only spent $100 on fuel for the trip.


The Geode is spectacular.
Not only is it rather large, it has very consistently dark and consistently formed Amethyst, nice polished agate border, 2' wide, 1' tall, 15" deep, (13" deep inside), weighs 180lbs, originated in Artigas, Uruguay.
All natural exterior. (many are coated with cement and paint :thumbdn:)

Seller wanted 24 on craigslist.
Then he put it on eBay for 22.
I offered 17 and he accepted.

It is amethyst and I am Royal?  Right?  Can I have it after you die?  (Sends Lady Weeble out for poison).

Really gorgeous.

You couldn't figure that out?  I think it was a bargain at that price, based on some I have seen in rock shops that weren't nearly that nice.
