Hi all. I'm excited to be on this site. I found the link on a Facebook group I belong to. I'm looking forward to all your knowledge and advice as my journey continues.
I'm 55 years old and was medically retired at 47. I had a very hard time adjusting to not working. Then I found my love of rocks! I've been collecting for about a year. I live in Colorado but the majority of my rocks come from Lake Superior as I was born and raised in Upper Michigan. I love to make things with my polished rocks and have even tried my hand at carving.
Looking forward to learning from everyone!

Welcome. Between Colorado and Superior you should have lots of fodder for stimulation and creativity. Show us your stuff.
