Got two great pieces of info to share with all the players today...

1) The Stars Boro-box from Round III is on it's way back to me, so it won't be long now, and
2) Just heard word from Nancy over at Northstar/Precision...she told me they're going to be sending me two pounds of absolutely yummy and delicious Double Amber Purple that I can 'toss' into our two boxes for everybody to share!

Yahoo - Yay for her, and the wonderful team from Precision/Northstar!

Wow! It's so nice of Northstar to contribute. Thanks! (I really need to get back on the torch and step away from the jewelers' bench)

I know, twin - so many things to do in a day! Based on those recent pics I saw of your gorgeous work, I gotta say I totally understand where you're coming from...
Aren't we lucky though to have so many wonderful addictions!?

Just heard from Phyllis - she's going to be sending me a pic of the NEW Trev's dichro we're all going to be getting to try!! I'll post the pic for us all to slobber over when I get it...

Just trying out my sorely lacking US geography skills - these are my proposed routes - can someone please tell me if they make sense?!?

IL - MO - CA - WA - BC - AB
TX - TN - FL - GA - SC - OH - WV - VA


Also - we need NAMES for our boxes - the player that comes up with our two winning names will get a super sample pack from Northstar/Precision.

Gotchya covered, Sandy - always a pleasure...I just happened to have had two secret spots left over in my "master plan" - there's still ONE SPOT LEFT if anybody else wants to jump in...

I'm liking "Heaven and Earth" - let's hear some other suggestions folks, and if someone could check my proposed routes above, I'd me much obliged...

Mmmm...I dunno Jo - sorry - doesn't "do it" for me...Still open for names folks - and your advice if my routes make any sense...

Actually, after first viewing the pic I'm going to share here - well my brain has turned to "Jelly Fish"...

Just so happens that that's the name of Trev's latest dichro. Are you ready? Hold onto your hat now...

















Thanks for the pic, Phyllis - and Trev's Glass' generous contribution to our fun! Have a happy weekend all...

Routes:

I think TX needs to be with the other mid-west states in the first box..like this:

IL - MO - TX - CA - WA - BC - AB

Start in IL, straight over to MO, then down to TX, then across to CA


The other box, coming from the south:

FL - GA - SC - TN - VA - WV - OH


I am not a geography expert though!

You are SUCH a sweetie Phyllis - thanks for hopping into our thread! I'm hoping this round all - or at least some, of the players will post pics of their creations using some of the goodies which our wonderful Sponsors have graciously donated...

So - thanks for the names Jana - it made me giggle - and your route corrections...another route question: Can it work with TX being with the Eastern box? I ask you this because I'm trying to split up the states with the number of players - being as we've got 4 Texans this round - their numbers would work better than in the Central/Western box...

Sure....I was not paying attention to number of people, but the number of states....

Just either start with TX:

TX - FL - GA - SC - TN - VA - WV - OH

or to create a circle, end with it:

FL - GA - SC - TN - VA - WV - OH - TX

You know, I was going to mention that Texas should be first, not because of geographical location, but because I can't wait to get my hands on the box!

WOW that dichro's pretty! I have a suggestion - why not follow the lead of all the reality shows and have the boxes RACE to the finish - we could have Team - (who's contributing?) Team Northstar and Team Trev - or something like that.

And I agree with showing what we make - maybe it will get me to the torch!

Ding-ding-ding: We got a winner! I know it wasn't intentional, but "Heaven & Earth" they shall be!

I love the idea of a side-game, but a race wouldn't be fair - you see there will be 8 players in one box (well not literally), and 13 in the other...I can't help it - it's all 'cause of those 4 Texans! If I switch TX from one side to the other, it causes pretty much the same imbalance...

Anyhow - I AM open to ideas - and FYI - got word today that the final box arrived for me from Round III...I did spend a bit of time today getting things organized - SO - it won't be too, too much longer now folks!

I AM waiting for that glorious Double Amber Purple from Northstar/Precision, as well as Trev's new delicious dichro - so everything is going to plan.

Ya got yourself a sample pack from Northstar/Precision, Sandy - I'll put it in the Heaven box for you!

I received the 2 pounds of Double Amber Purple from Nancy over at NS/PC today - yippee - just putting all my ducks in a row now fols - I'm thinking this could quite possibly be the best round yet!

Okay - so while we're waiting: I received back the 3rd and final box from the Round III game, and I've got a couple of really nice pieces of Trev's dichro that are just kinda sitting around...

Hmmm...

Personally, I rather enjoyed our riddles and such from our last game. I've got one of those dichro pieces ready to go to the player with the "best" riddle. Whatchya got folks?!? Riddle our brains...

Edit: Saw your note Wendy...whatever would possess you to sell off all your boro, without first offering it all to me?! Whatever works for you - hope all is well...

I got a riddle!
I am an honest person, and am thinking of one of three numbers: 1, 2 or 3. You may ask me EXACTLY one yes-no question, I will answer truthfully, and if you chose the right question, you will know which number I'm thinking of! (HINT: if I cannot answer your question, I will say I cannot answer it).
