Hello fellow rock lovers. My name is Andy, I am 32 years old and from southern Minnesota. Land of limestone. I have loved rocks since I was about 3. I have dabbled a bit in cutting and polishing them but have yet to get too serious. I look forward to learning from you all!

Welcome from a neighbor to the east in Wisconsin . Do a little research and you will find that you are not far from some pretty decent rocks to work with .

Welcome from Tennessee. I've often used the 'Land of Limestone' to describe my immediate area as well. But with a little investigation, you can find something within a few hours of just about anyplace I would expect.

Thanks for the welcoming! Hey Andy. How far are you from the agates? [ Not too far. I'm in southern Minnesota and the agates are more north and a little west of me. I've spent a lot of time hiring for them along the shores of Lake Superior, but the lake seems to grind them up pretty good. I've never found much. I've got a few nice ones I've picked out of washrock used for landscape beds. Gravel outstrips far nicer stones in my experience.
