Friday morning we were eager to get started and arrived at the Forum an hour before show start.

 

 

 

It wasn't long before we were open for business.

 

 

 

 

Bill's wife Sherry had added some new additions to her T-Shirt designs.

 

 

 

 

 

I took a stroll around to meet some of the show officials. This is Tim Biggart. He was the Show Chairman. Here we find him examining some beautiful Opal rough that he had just purchased at the show.

 

 

This is Dr. Bob Madden. He was the Dealer Chairman. He is also the current President of the Rome Georgia Mineral Society. Bob has become well known for his "unique" rock digging adventures :)
