Hello Orchidians,

    Doug Zaruba's "confession" and description made me remember how
    commonplace is the "wear it anywhere" attitude.  My mother-in-law
    received a lovely ring from my father-in-law.  It used to hold a
    gorgeous 6x4 oval blue sapphire, until she wore it camping and
    fishing.  While turning the van door's handle, she torqued the head,
    twisted the prongs, and lost the stone.  There was also a definite
    scrape in the car's finish. 

    I've replaced the stone, but the original was quite lovely and a
    real loss.  So sad and not necessary. 

    Judy in Kansas, where the lawn is leaping higher and higher... maybe
    I should get a goat??
