Passion for Rocks
Passion for rocks, how could that be?
Actually it started at the age of three, after picking up Easter eggs at the Easter egg hunt, someone notice at the bottom of my basket there were several stones; they took the hard boiled eggs and I got the rocks.
Maybe when Pet Rocks were the thing. We petted them in fun, warmed them in the sun and paint faces on them.
Birthday gift of an Aquamarine and diamond chip ring for my special day.
Rocks circling the ring of fire at Pow-Wows.
Learning to skip rocks was my next adventure at church camp Egan, I was only good for the count of four.
Hiking the canyons at Red Rock Canyon in my childhood.
Macramé hangers for plants with rocks entwined.
Repelling rocks in California with ease.
I waited till I was thirty to get serious about collecting stones from places I visited.
