The 2025 Che-Hanna Rock and Mineral Show was a big success. Four of my five UV programs were standing-room-only. We even had a bus load of excited folks from a retirement home.

Some of my helpers at one of my programs came up front after the program to get a photo with me. One of the gals even had me autograph the mineral ID label of the specimen she got. She said she wasn’t going to put it on eBay.

See what happens every year, one or more alumni folks show up at one of my programs. Some have been back as many as 14 years. I hope that they were there to enjoy the programs and not just see if I am still alive.
