Nancy took an early lead, and Rob began to catch her as it went on. However, I am a banded chert lover and her piece reminded me of a crazy pattern found on a large Madagascar agate, minus the colors. Although it was close, I gave the win to Nancy. Rob, your banded chert was breath taking as well. Chert doesn't get the respect it deserves. All beautiful rocks, making it hard to hard to pick a winner, and thanks for including so many different types of minerals.

I found favorites in both of your choices and though I loved your pudding stone Rob, I found more rocks in Nancy's group of favorites than yours, that I preferred. Your lace agates were comparable in their beauty to each other, but as you said, you did tumble all of them, so there is that. And on Nancy's polish flint, I distinctly saw a beautiful bird with it's wings tucked, swirling around, so that makes the back of that rock not so dull after all. Eye of the beholder and all that. ( : Rob, your choices of rocks were awesome, though since I have to choose .... Nancy Wins with her very contrasting colors and pizzazzy designs. This was fun and hope we do this again sometime. ( :

Nancy's esthetic agrees with mine. So I have to vote for Nancy's choices.

I think Nancy has you beat. I really like that piece of banded chert because it reminds me of one of the many, many, many pieces that I found on my trip. I also really love the picture jasper. It was really tough though. They may be cliché, but tiger’s eye is one of my favorites.
