Tree Rings are more interesting.

The hardest part of collecting rocks for me is making space to display it all. I wish some smart person would figure out some way to display the goodies that is more efficient than shelves.

Know what you mean, if there is a flat spot in this house it has rocks on it! Walls are getting covered also!

We have rocks for door stoppers - no kidding.

"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."

I've seen small strands placed in cabinets that are tasteful.
