Nice! Do you have the whole lapidary set up? Saws, polishing, wheels, or belts, sticks, wax, etc.? Or do you just tumble them? My old man used to do it! He would spend hours out in the garage. I think mostly just to get away from my mom! L O L

Yeah, I think the rockhound community is pretty tightknit! Thick as thieves! L O L! But that’s a testament to the place! You’re 3000 miles away!

Out by mom's place in Clinton, TN, there's a place called Earth's Core. Private little hippie/rockhound paradise.


When i go there i have to only go with a set amount of cash, or i spend too much money there. It's a really cool store.

Definitely recommend checking it out to anyone coming through the East, TN area lol. There's not nearly as many of these places this cool out east.

The old man that was my 4th grade science teacher i do contract style work for sometimes (those decks i built), he actually owns this store. Was his late wife's pride and joy. Now his kids run it.

I hear you! You get that sparkle in your eye, and it’s easy to get carried away! L O L! Then, in five years when you’re facing hard times, living on Rahman, cheap booze, and rolling and re-rolling your own SIGs! You look at those rocks and go. What the hell was I thinking!

cool backstory because why not.

He was a PHD geologist that chose to be an elementary school science teacher even though he owned a boat dealership and this rock store, and i credit him entirely for my love of the sciences and scientific method. I'll just call his wife a "Free spirit" so to speak lol. They met in the summer of 1969, need i say more? Theres literally 20 songs about this dude written by people who never even knew him lmfao.

I can still quote from his classes directly and verbatim from memory because of how unbelievably fun this guy managed to make the act of learning and note taking for kids. He had this thing called the map game too. I can point to any country on a map the second you say its name and tell you its capital without reading it. He turned it into a game that had the entire class of 10yo's fighting to be the best at memorizing stuff. The guy is an absolute genius. I re-met him by chance at a store shopping when i was still staying at mom's place right after i moved back to TN right after his wife died. He immediately became one of my best friends i think i;ve ever had.

He didn't retire until those "core curriculum" mandates started, and only because it made his method of teaching children impossible to do (Which is a HUGE shame... Dude could wiggle his nose the right way and the kids were doing his job for him) Says he would have taught children til he was physically unable otherwise.

The conversations i have with this guy have become something i very much look forward to, they can go anywhere, touch any topic, even the most sensitive, and even if we disagree, it just never becomes anything more then disagreeing about a simple topic of conversation and debate.

He's helping me get a lot better at being social in the real world too.
