  1. Thanks a ton Nathan!! And Bob, he's mibs are absolutely stunning! I have a stand and mib that he and Kaj did for me awhile back and I have to tell you they are both incredibly awesome! I even have one of his that fractured and I carry it around with me with my pill box and pocket knife when ever I leave the house. It's so beautiful, it looks like it has a life of it's own! And the optical properties of the glass make the spiral look amazing! When you hold it in your hand it looks deeper than possible and it's a total mind trip! My daughter, who is now four years old, loves it when I let her hold it. She actually takes after her dad in more ways than one. I use some of my mibs to help me meditate to relieve pain when trying to sleep at night or during the day when it get's over powering. My daughter doesn't really understand why I do it, but here's a funny story.

    Macy, my baby girl, has been carrying around her blanket for the last three years. When she goes to bed, she holds the blanket and rubs the silky tag between her thumb and forefinger while sucking her thumb of the other hand. Since she has seen me using marbles to sleep with, she has adobted this as well with Nathan's mib with the fracture. (I let her hold this one and rub it like her tag much like I do when meditating only because it's big enough that it wouldn't fit in her mouth even by accident.) It is the ONLY, and I stress the word ONLY, thing she will use for a substitute for her blanket!! I wish I would have known this sooner as when it comes time to wash her blanket and it's not dry before bed time, Or when we simply cannot find where she left her blanket before it's time to lay her down for bed, boy there is trouble to be had! lol My wife and I even went so far as to buy two of the same exact blankets from the store to get around this problem! But Macy knows they are not her, "Taggers" as she calls it, even when it's pitch black in the room!! lol Now that I know she takes after her father, it only makes me smile, and appreciate all the hard work Nathan puts into his work to make them the smoothest beauties in my collection. He is a great artist for sure! And a great person and friend.

    Your awesome Nathan! Love ya brother!

  2. Once again my trip has been kaboshed. Im depressed beyond measure. We had two tractors here last night and one is here today with a plow truck and have been working on our quarter mile of hell all morning. We can't leave the kids here without a way to get in and out besides treking across the fields. I officially hate winter and snow. I hope you all have a terrific time and can't wait to hear all the stories and see some pictures of you all! God Bless you all and please pray for winter to end!!!

    Your friend in the cold snowy crud of Michigan,

  3. Need some quick and important questions answered please. Which Holiday Inn is this? I get two of them when I pop up the address on Google. Is it the one on NW or SW Bluebell Dr? Also, will there be more time than just on Saturday to look, buy and chat with everyone? Thank you very much in advance! Talking the wife into the trip as I type! lol Cross your fingers for me!! :) God Bless!

  4. I want to go diggin!! Maybe we could get a group together this spring or summer and do a little escavating? :) I'd love it I am sure as just wandering around with a metal detector for a bit last summer was awesome and I didn't find anything but pop bottle caps and loads of old nails! lol
