Very nice.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

Thanks all. Longhunter: I think it comes from just about all parts of the world but that green came from NC..

It is good to see that you got something from the cracked rock. Your points look soooooo much better than mine...well done. Your notching is great! Someday I will have to watch you do that.

All of them look like keepers Cowboy. The one in the bottom right-last pic looks like it would put meat in the freezer ;D
