Hi everyone, I'm thrilled to be here and hope to absorb all your knowledge through my own trial and error.
I'm a crazy old hippie and a bit of a gypsy originally from SW Ohio in the cornfields. Currently living the dream in the PNW in Western Washington. This place is like living in the Land of the Lost (referencing an old kid's show from my youth) and the rocks here are the most amazing things I've ever seen anywhere (and I've been almost everywhere.) The mushrooms, weather and people here are pretty amazing too
I have a rock tumbler and have used it once, a little bit of life happened and polishing got put on the back burner. I am now ready to restart this thing y'all do because I want shiny rocks too! I made it through the 1st and 2nd cycles of tumbling and had to dismantle so I really have no idea what I'm doing and I don't know what happened to those damn rocks either, lol.
I'm ready to learn, thanks for having me!

Welcome from Virginia!
At the risk of seeming unwelcoming, can I ask you not to use that font color? A lot of people, including myself, use the dark theme on the site which makes it next to impossible to read your post. I had to highlight it to read it.

Welcome from Northern Arizona! I have to second rockjunquie's request. There are a lot of us with aging eyes here and the purple font color (although we love purple) is extremely difficult to read.
