I have always picked up rocks. I have a rock collection going back to my tween years. Several years ago, Shawn bought me a rock tumbler, because, I guess, I needed one more hobby. But, so, when we stopped at Cutface Creek on our way back from Bearskin, I picked p a bunch of rocks that I thought it would be fun to see what the tumbler made of them. When I first pulled them out this morning (after almost of month's worth of grinding and polishing,) I was, initially, disappointed. But, on closer inspection, I think some of these are actually fairly spectacular.
Now, I just have to find a nice place for these beauties....
