Rock Polisher and other news

Cleaning the tumbler
Looking at the rocks (the best part)

After two weeks of tumbling. One week of course grit and another week of fine grit. They are very smooth.


After three days in the tumbler with the pre-polish.



I know you are all dying to know how the rocks are doing. This Sunday Henry finished the fine grit and started on the pre-polish. We should have them all polished by next Thursday. They are really cool looking.
In other news:
* Chris is doing much better and has gone to the store by myself. He will start work again in 1 1/2 weeks.
* Yesterday, scouts pick up trash at the spit. It was awesome. It was raining all around us but there was a circle of sunshine were we were picking up trash. God answered my prayer that day.
*When I got home from scouts our house was directly under the rainbow. It was a full arch rainbow. It was really pretty. Wish I had my camera.
* Henry told Chris "You just don't get it" (talking about fashion). It was pretty funny.
* I think we have made it two weeks without throwing up. It has only been a week since someone was sick. We are slowing improving.
*Jill is enjoying Easter Candy
*We are half way through the Lightening Thief (great book)
