8 days

In 8 days, I leave cold snowy Minnesota for warmth, sunshine, vacation, and the Tucson Gem Show. Finally! After 9 consecutive years attending, I had to miss last year due to family health issues. So my BONES are literally aching to go again! If you have read my blog for any length of time there are a few posts and photo's from previous years, but I have come across some great pictoral blogs that will give you a taste of the show:

Great descriptions, and the Crystal Man looks familiar!

But not to worry, I will be blogging and facebooking lots of pictures and stories too! (I don't have immediate internet access while in Phoenix (where I am staying most of the trip), but I will in Tucson.)

WHOO HOOOOOO!
