Steph, that dog joke is cracking me up! That expression! Awww! What a sweetie! One of the sweetest dogs I've ever known was a red dobie, she was so considerate and charming, and she loved to play.

Great! Would love to see pictures if you've already taken them. Akro is my favorite company

I would call it a blue Ace, I'm not certain if there is a specific name for it. very nice group of Akros Aces

Lovely aventurine Ann ! Here's a minty colored green

Those are beautiful! I especially like that Halloween cullet, very nice Bill.

Well, I put it up for ID, and I can't remember if it was three or four people, but all agreed it was CAC. And since I certainly can't tell the difference yet, he has a box all to himself

aleecee This looks like such a beautiful marble I don't know if I've ever seen such a deep green on that ade base, and with that bright white tracing, gorgeous!

My one and only CAC (that I know of lol)

Akro Green

I did a little research, found it! Great (or perhaps Common) Mullein; and, more formally, as verbascum Thapsus. although I prefer the elusive Wild-Flowering Asparagus

He's back at it again ! I was almost falling for it, and asked about them, so glad I did, here's the link. Some of them look pretty good to me, but, then, I like the machine mades. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&_udlo=&_udhi=&_ftrt=901&_ftrv=1&_sabdlo=&_sabdhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_stpos=32250-1732&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_fss=1&_fsradio=%26LH_SpecificSeller%3D1&_saslop=1&_sasl=supermarbles&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50 Hope that link works!

So sorry to hear this, hugs for you and your family, especially your Mom. I only knew him through transactions on eBay, always great.

Awesome! congrats !

They ARE very relaxing, aren't they ?

And actually I did the same with all those green slags

Well, shoot, I'd like to take credit for it, but all I do is light it up from behind with a flashlight and use a flash on my camera (cell phone camera lol) Then crop the photo. There's nothing else I do. I make it a point to not use any filters or change anything about the marbles themselves, I do like to cut and paste them onto a background sometimes, but that's it. I do wash and dry them if I've had them sitting for awhile like these, or the catseyes for that matter, but warm water only, no soap, and I don't like the way a paper towel seems to feel like it leaves a film on them, so I dry them with my shirt. I'm fancy like that lol. And I was kind of hoping these were Akro, but I wasn't sure about the whispy base. Thanks!

I'm glad to hear the temp is staying down for the baby, 60 sounds wonderful ! Every summer, I look at my scarves hanging up and can't even fathom wearing them, it's so hot and humid right now lol.

Thanks Steph!! I qualified for the satellite to the final tournament. I need to make the final table, the final table advances to the real tournament .

Hope the kitty cat is doing okay Steph Well, it's 89 degrees right now, with a high of 98 today, seems like a good day to stay inside got a poker tournament to play in today. Here's my Teacup Rose and my long stem Roses

A cute red slag 17/32" (on the far right, that's a fur, not a scratch, darn cats lol)

A blue green mystery to me, the three seem similar, the fourth on the top right might be another maker. I like them.

Winnie, that second one with the brilliant orange is gorgeous! Green slags

Two Prize Name Akros - Black Widows Thanks! -Jess

Beautiful! Very bright!

Ooh, you won that Akro cork, I remember seeing that one recently Very nice
