Hello everyone, here in UT getting back in touch with my interest in rocks and bringing my daughters in for the ride. So far this summer I have collected all sorts of minerals and started tumbling this fall. Have both a HF bouble barrel and a Thumbler UV-10 IND. Now that the vibratory tumbler is here I can make some tracks. Once I get some good rocks in hand I will start wrapping and go from there. Glad to be out exploring in the summer and have a new hobby for the winter.

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."

Very nice always good to get the kids involved. Always happy to hear that.there is something warming in my heart when i hear my grown boys say Dad do you want to go down to the river. That's how i know they really did enjoy it in them younger years . glad your here can't wait to see some of your rocks.welcome from Colorado.

If I had a nickle for every rock I have I would buy more rocks!
