    My Garden

    I have 1500 gallons capacity for catching rainwater. I have never planted without rainwater, right now, I have zero. I am using well water--what a drag!! My rain catching system has been set up for three weeks. No rain in the future either. The grass is growing yet thanks to the cooler nights but it feels like walking on gravel---poor Robins--I might have to set up a sprinkler for them--not kidding. I take care of the birds. I tilled my garden two weeks ago. The weeds are not even growing--yet😁. I see using many types of mulch in the future weeks. It is gardening--not growing--always a challenge. I had to water my native species today--with well water. I have never had to fill my little goldfish pond with well water--Guess what? Garden On!!
  5. Well----I had better check my Pelt Rainbo stash, it has been a few years and maybe some are named. I have to stay out of the dirt for awhile—Doctors orders. I see a good thread coming soon. I will try it out, but I am just not a name guy. Three marbles per post are allowed--right? I can take images now--nothing else- no garden work—this is my planting time—what a drag. The garden will be planted a tad late this year----------oh well------ Marble—On!!

    I just love chives---use the flowers in cooking for a little extra snap of color.( I eat them rawđŸ€Ș) Flowers--On!!
  7. OK Steph, Thanks for that. I agree that it is a Veiligglas--nice one. The opaques are a hard find here in the USA. Marble--On!!
  8. #28 and # 30 are more than likely Vitro “Horsehoe catseyes”. #1 could be one from a variety of makers—no ID will be produced here. #24—I think that you have two separate marbles here, top and bottom are not the same marble imho. #23 well it could be a Pelt Rainbo---maybe— Marble—On!!
  9. Winnie??---Size??? Very Nice what ever it is!! Marble--On!!
  10. Nice "Monet" Scooter!! Marble--On!!
  11. Size always matters--- Marble--On!!
  12. That is a new name to me. Pelt Rainbos came in as many variations of colors as Akro corks did. Pelts seem to pick up names quicker than invasive flowers. I cannot keep up with them—the names. It is a Rainbo—nice one!! Marble—On!!
  13. Agreed Steph. "Special" usually deserves more images----- Marble---On!!
  14. Good stuff! Thanks for the input. (make some more marbles) Marble--On!!
  15. Welcome to "TheMarbleConnection" Maria BLanco. Your son has the best place in mind--West Virginia. I just wish that I could take a trip there--I am not very good at traveling thoughđŸ€ą. Start with Clarksburg and hit the antique stores. Marble--On!!
  16. This ID is based on your second image left to right. Master Patch WVS—no ID from me--more opinions are needed here. Akro Patch Marble—On!!
  17. #1 looks like a Vitro to me #2–well I will call it a Heaton—nice marble!! #3—it may be a MK #4—alley agate I appreciate all opinions and more are needed here. Marble—On!!
  18. No oxblood imho---it may be a Pelt Rainbo-- Nice one! Marble--on!!
  19. X2---Whaaaa??? Marble--On!!
  20. The search has started and what a search it is. Welcome to the marble collecting search that we all enjoy. Post what you have and remember--there are no dumb questions. Marble--On!!
  21. Welcome to "TheMarbleConnection" ItsMavsGma! Great images and a great example--very nice! Marble--On!!
  22. More than likely clays were involved. It looks legit to me. https://www.ebay.com/itm/225586207807?hash=item3485fc5c3f:g:EWcAAOSwJ19kanC1&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAsO7BJEwy9FWBt7bfRoEYNIBAfr0u8Wo6xdbzJ1qBToYIqb%2ButfD7F%2B%2B8pZHZT3%2BUl27v%2BI98g4zZAcoSVQnQebw4kiCgxtQBI8PV8cFaDgXHs847Yj4KdqH3Ujd8bJ8gjsbXRXXbXGmW7%2BCkOrkqQ4TlEEpEiXXGN%2FKxAL%2Bfpwp6RAhvOKONuueqZ5jzyLv67AKWrAb1P%2FBt3A7igKns3nGfSj0yIo6h2q0yWykRN93a|tkp%3ABk9SR7bw85SJYg Marble--On!!
  23. My first thought at the images was ohhh--what a nice Pelt!! Lets get @Chad G. @IowaMarble @Dave 13 @Carowill @Peltier Mibber @mibcapper and all of those Pelt-Heads that I have not listed involved. I know that I am forgetting many of you and I apologize for that. Old age--it will catch up with you as well---- Marble--On!!
