Description from Granny Nancy: We had had some really, really hot days after a long spell of really pleasant spring weather. Then came these much cooler, very rainy (with occasional sun) and the changeability attributing to aches and pain in our elderly population (moi). I do love labradorite. Sometimes with rainbow labs the flashes of blue are so pretty.
