    I rather like the patterning on this stone. :)

    Thanks! Yep! You are right. The little ones always seem to be in one stage of shed or another...:)

    Hahaha! Could be!

    Some stones get more 'in-blue' than others!

    I am *almost* tempted to name this ball python because she is carrying multiple Het Recessives and I will probably be keeping her for a long long time. :)

    The stone in the center I shaped for a little over a year before polishing it. It is a shame that the pits in the red part of the stone are throughout the entire piece....I had to call it quits though: I have ground away over 50% of its original mass...I did learn enough not to try and tumble large pieces of a nearly identical stone also taken from Lake Superior (shown below).

    What a beautiful "snake & stone salad"! Oh, go on...give the little beauty a name, for Pete's sake! And I don't see anything to pity in that large center stone either- I think it's quite attractive. :gj:

    I was thinking along the same line, petrified wood? but Tiger's Eye is a real good guess too.
