I'm Kym. Recently moved to Southern Utah. I love collecting rocks/gemstones both from the terra firma and at gem shops. Been a lurker on here for a couple of months and decided to join. I recently found some blue chalcedony in my backyard which was a lovely surprise. Thank you.

Hi Kym and welcome from Northern Arizona!

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
