I’m so glad to have found this group. I’ve e always loved rocks and recently came across a company doing live sales. Needless to say, I have a new addiction. I’ve started wrapping and love the simple look. Living in Nova Scotia, I’m surrounded by rocks. Trying to absorb as much as I can about them. My next step is to get out and find my own and start the process of designing jewellery from step one. I don’t have any equipment yet but am doing my research to determine what I will need. looking forward to sharing my journey and hoping to learn from your experience as well.

Welcome from Virginia! You've came to the right place.
Nova Scotia is home to some really nice flame agates.

Hello. Try Nova Scotia in the search box up top. You’ll find a ton of posts on your area.
Unfortunately, it looks like all of 150fromFundy’s pics have been deleted at Photobucket, but there’s still a lot of info in his posts.

Welcome. I visited Nova Scotia with emphasis on its shorelines, for a month or so when I was just beginning to pay particular attention to rocks. Hence rocks of interest were everywhere with the distinction between granite and agate nebulous especially if it was wet and pretty colors were present. Hence I say, what a wonderful place to start out with rocks. As your knowledge and collecting chops increase your collecting sites will both increase and decrease. In the meantime enjoy the ride and realize that " the price is right and I'm here" and "they don't cost much to store until I want to pass them on or let them reassimilate into the flower beds". If golf is an excuse to take a walk in the out of doors, rock collecting is an even better one to pay attention to what's afoot and the beauty of your locale. Enjoy and tell us about it.
