I want to let everyone know that this upcoming weekend is going to be Gemworld 2023. This show is hosted by my local club, The Gem & Mineral Society of Syrause. If anyone happens to be in the area this weekend you should stop on in. I also wanted to show you all an old find from I believe Spring of 2015. Over the years I have found quite a few good size Dipluera dekayi trilobites. The one I will be posting pics of, is the only one left in my family's possession. I gave it to my oldest Son, who in turn gave it to his Sister. I got it from her last night as I am putting together a trilobite display for the show and will be showing this off. Right now with some cephalon and pygidium missing it measures 6 1/4 inches long with missing parts it would be about 6 1/2- 6 3/4 inches. I am really looking forward to the show and hope some of you can make it.

Today was the first day of the Syracuse Gem & Mineral Show. I work at the show the entire day and it was a blast. Unfortunately for fossil lovers this years show did not have a good fossil turnout. While there were some nice fossils to be had, we lost a major fossil dealer, who in my opinion carried the largest variety of goods. I did not get any pictures of the show today as I was very busy, but will make a point of doing so tomorrow as I will be there all day for day #2. I did want to show what I purchased. I always tell myself not to by anything but it gets very hard to resist. So I managed 3 nice trilobites. The last one did not have much information, only that it was from Morocco.

I wanted to let everyone know about our upcoming Mineral and fossil show held in Syracuse New York. If you have not already seen it posted on the forum's calendar of events, our show is Gemworld 2019. It is hosted by the Syracuse Gem & Mineral Society. It will be held at the New York State Fairgrounds Center of Progress Building Saturday July 13 from 10am- 6pm and Sunday July 14 from 10am- 4pm. If you will be in the area that weekend please come buy and check it out. I believe we do put on a great show. This year I will be helping out in the youth area making beaded bracelets for the kids. The lady who usually does this cant make it and needed someone to fill in. I will be there for most of both days. I will also have a display of my sharkteeth. There is plenty to see, and plenty to buy. Presentations will be given and there are other activities for kids. So fun for the whole family. Hope to see you there! Dave
