I didn´t go because of our old Italian dog who was still alive then.
Yes, it is the Emerald Fleck from the Yukon. You are the one who searches for a dark green bangle, right?
What about something like mine?

LOL My FIL lived there for 5 years on his boat while working for homeland security. I do wish I had visited him before he moved but me and planes haven't quite developed an amicable relationship [emoji4] My DH on the other hand is in a helicopter on a regular basis, I can not even imagine that [emoji15]

ME TOO!!!! We are so alike. I don't like to get on a plane too.

Your welcome [emoji4] I'm in PA. My DH just retired and he wants to live on a golf course. Not sure if we are staying in PA yet, he is interviewing for a few different positions now. Moving to Maryland is definitely an option but nothing concrete yet.

C Rose just wanted to say I loved Pennsylvania when we visited several years ago. We were at a waterpark in Erie PA - Splash Lagoon. It was so much fun! We also did the outlet mall in Grove City and also spent a day in Pittsburgh. It was a lovely little road trip with hubby and the boys.
We are doing another road trip in a few weeks - still not sure where but will be either to Cape Cod or Myrtle Beach Beach. Never been to Cape Cod or Boston but we did do Myrtle Beach , South Carolina a couple of years ago and love it. Sorry Jadies I'm off topic lol!

Happy father's day to all my jadie daddies!

CR, that bracelet and ring pair so nicely; Uli, love your stacks, as always.


Re: jade price
I do think the price of jade has been climbing. I think I remember reading that 2009-2010 was a big increase in prices and that they've gone up pretty steadily since. I'm already priced out of most jade. I think I'm mostly done with collecting bangles and I'm very happy buying preloved. I used to not buy 14k or set in 14k (I prefer the color of 18kyg or higher), but for pre-owned pretty jade pieces, I've made exceptions.

For today... green theme: nephrite beads and jadeite monkey & ruyi

I love your bracelet - the little pi's are so sweet and your ring pairs nicely with it too! What to the chinese characters on your ring say? I'm Chinese but unfortunately can not read or write it.

Thank you so much 2B_JM! I'm not 100% sure but it says "best wishes" on the inside of the ring. So I'm guessing that's what it is. I looked it up and is stands for rú yí but I couldn't get a clear answer on what that means either LOL

Splash Lagoon sounds like a blast! There is a brand new indoor water park here called Kalahari Resort Waterpark that I hear is really nice. I haven't been there yet[emoji4]

We just came back from myrtle beach and we had a great time! We were there for a week and it seemed to fly by. We ended every night with a trip to Ben and jerry's ice cream. The weather was perfect too. Not sure where your going but I'm sure you will have an awesome time with the family[emoji5]
