This one seems to lead to Couplet 35 of the Key to Genera of Perlodidae Nymphs and the genus Isoperla, but I'm skeptical that's correct based on the general look. I need to get it under the microscope to review several choices in the key, and it'll probably end up a different Perlodidae.

Wow!..Looks beautiful. I use to live in a big home, made of limestone with a light blue streak through it that came from a quarry in Ohio. We had the home built, and I watched them drop off piles of these blue limestone rocks on our property, and the bricks were chiseled right on the property.
