Finally made it to the Turlock Show
Didn't buy a whole lot, but here is what I got.
3inches wide Kyanite 5in Smoky Quartz Someday I may master loading the photos.
Re: Finally made it to the Turlock Show
We got there soon after it opened and it was really crowded. With families with children and everything in between. Good size show for such a small town. Maybe next year we'll go on Sunday and amazing thing David went with me.

oooOOOOoooo is right, that is a sweet crystal formation with such a subtle tint of color, and to me it looks like pale lavender. Beautiful, and it looks like you had a good time picking them all out 8's. How big is the smoky quartz?

Re: Finally made it to the Turlock Show
Thank you ladies, the every which way crystal is amethyst, the smoky is 4inches and the cab is pietercite. I really like the blue of the upward crystal kyanite and of course a perennial fav apatite. The vendor of the smoky was fun cuz he enjoyed the hagleing.

Re: Finally made it to the Turlock Show
Nice buys! I wish I could remember what they call those quartz/amethyst clusters with the loose habit, but it's not coming to mind just now. They do better show the individual crystals than the denser plates.

Re: Finally made it to the Turlock Show
Nice finds. I'd heard the Turlock show was a good one. We set a record for attendance in Klamath Falls on Saturday and for the week end, even tho Sunday was slow. I actually won two of the items from the prize case this year? Wearing my lucky elephant tail hair bracelet I bet. It was funny. They were reading it off and I won a beaded bracelet of fiber optics and I said to my friends the next vendors (They sold a contra luz opal and I didn't boo Hoo LOL), anyway, as they described the next thing, a silver set ammonite; I said and I'll take that too, and they read my name out again. These were out of different jars where we bought tickets and put them in the what 30 jars of what you prize wanted to win (I donated a Downing Opal Adventures book and a boulder opal pendent myself). Spooky. They also mine sunstones besides being opalholics.
