1. Spin the baby! Is the baby sitting on a snow shovel? That's great!

2. Yes, that's the baby of our family, on a scoop shovel.
That's what we called that type of shovel.

Actually I've heard of Bluebell turquoise. Where is that mine located? I'm wondering if that is the source of Bluebell turquoise. Did you ever collect any turquoise there?

12. There were a few poor quality turquoise pockets.
You may be thinking of Bisbee turquoise.

It's quite famous.

7. Wow!
What a treasure in family history. I love them, too. I'm one of those rare guests who enjoys it when friends bring out the slide projector and shows the family photos during a visit. Family photos tell such great stories.
