Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much, those of you who've written. 

Just a quick note...

It was chilly last night and will be under 60 degrees here today with a breeze. I've already had my breakfast, complimentary from the folks here at Inn Suites and am ready. I've some basic set-up scenarios to continue through, but I'm close. 

I explored last night, looking for open rooms, and found one of a Russian dealer whose specimens were mainly polished slabs and spheres of rarer native materials. Among his treasures were several examples of kyanite. I've friends who collect this mineral and one of them, Everett Harrington is visiting the show here for the first time this year. In an earlier conversation, he'd mentioned his hope to acquire a Swiss specimen of kyanite in combination with staurolite. I inquired and was pleasantly surprised to find this gentleman had Russian specimens in his inventory with both present. I'll share the room number with Everett when he gets to town. Ya just never know what you'll find!

Well, it's getting busier out in the Lobby and I best be moving on so someone else can use the terminal. From Tucson, have a great day everyone and all the very best!

John
