Bingo! Found the set Scott posted earlier. Three MFC's with a CAC in the middle. But if anyone one else has any to show off that would be great. (click to enlarge)

Looking for a picture of a Persian Turquoise. Anyone have one to share? ... and any other MFC's would be nice to see if you're so disposed!

Thanks guys!

I miss my Mom. Here's to my wonderful stepmother!

Here are some pix Nancy sent. I resized them some. I have the bigger versions if anyone wants them. (click to enlarge) Here are the Cairo Marble Park and Marshall Hardware. I recognize some of the people here - like Nancy and Dave - but if anyone wants to help me out with names, that would be great!

I picked that last pic just because ... and then I saw that the yellow dot on that top one of the group of three was special. This pic has a closer up view of the yellow dot.

Farah, check out this album for more pix. Even more small chinas

A few more if no one objects ......

That's what I thought.

This has generally been agreed to be a broken cork. That is, if anyone disagreed they didn't make their opinion known to me. I can see seams:

I think I see the link ups you're talking about, Ric. Do you get the feeling that people haven't been looking for that pattern much on known MK's?

like candy.

Thanks for the early report, Edna! Have a blast!
