    Color photo: Black Tourmaline in White Quartz -- paid too much for the rough stones, but, knew it would make a nice picture.

    What a wonderful story and photos! I remember as a kid going to those displays in gift shops that had the big bin of tumbled rocks, and you could fill a bag for a small amount of $. I had quite a collection and it was so fun to sort them and just hold handfuls of them. :-) Thanks for bringing back that good memory, and sharing yours.

    You bet!

    I was pretty excited as a kid to see a stone display in a gift shop too. Usually they look like something like this:

    However, this is to lure you in...depending upon what 'grade' of stones the gift store has purchased for resale, most times the stones I see for sale look like this:

    Which IMO is just a little better than fish tank gravel.

    The "kid in me" still loves rocks & I usually go to a gem & mineral show every year, & of course, come home with some too.

    Re: Snakes and Stones

    oh yes, last year on my birthday we went to a fun children play place (I will not say the name for privacy reasons! who knows who gonna research.) and in the gift shop they had one of the stands with the rocks with the bag and I begged my mom to let me get one. long story short we got one and I already lost da bag. I think I still have a rock around my room somewhere. I
    m to lazy to find it I'll just wait 10 years for it to show up somewhere.
