Gemstones are one of the 'proofs' of the existence of Divinity.

I know a place in the desert where geodes grow like mushrooms, in the corners and edges of a rocky ridge, and scattered, broken in streambeds below.

Saw one at the Museum in the Big City, bigger'n a watermelon.

You're first thread surely is a gem, Miss Aqua.

(Hope The Thin Man didin't see that, he'd bust me, big time...)))

Wish you hadn't told me that. I collect geodes...did you know that the geode with the amethyst crystals is the rarest and most valuable geode?

I consider that a high compliment! Thanks!
