Welcome from North Idaho. You’ve found a great forum for asking questions, making friends and showing off your rocks. I’m looking forward to seeing some of your collection.

At least you have nice rocks to kick around. Here we have very common blah rocks, granite mostly. Looking forward to seeing what you've collected.

I'm another life-long rock lover; also love the desert because you can see the rocks instead of all the trees etc.

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."

-- C.S. Lewis
