I'm a rockaholic!
Got hooked on rocks as a kid. I had two great shale deposits near my house and I dug all kinds of fossil plants and shellfish. Got into tumbling stones a long time ago too. I prowl Ebay looking for goodies. I have about a hundred pounds of jasper and agates to work with right now.
Slow work, but the results are awesome!
