Tallahassee / Quincy, Florida

A real man enjoys a challenge. Since Miss Dawn slapped me across my scarred and battered face with a gauntlet, (or chucked a rock at my head depending on one’s point of view), I thought I would politely meet her little challenge. This collection is ONLY the rocks that were in my living room and computer room. It does not include the rocks in the three bedrooms, the screened in front porch or in the 50-gallon aquarium. (The fishies were sleeping. And I didn’t want to wake them) So Miss Dawn, … I restate my earlier comment, … guys like rocks.
It’s a guy thing you know!

I used to really like some of the bright coloured geode and wonder at the mineral mix that produced such specimens. To my horror I learned, this summer, that many of them are fake, as they are died. I suspect the large pink and the green slice [front right] may have been coloured in this way. The jury is still out on whether I’d give them house space now, as I have a preference towards the natural.
However, while talking ascetics, John, it’s a nice collection and I like the look of the table you’ve presented them on as well.

Nice collection! (I like rocks and I'm not a guy.)

Nice geode collection and I like the arrowheads up front. But just as cool as the rocks is the table, a real man's table.
