Mineral Museum

We stopped at the Mineral Museum on the Parkway......of course our little rock hound was in heaven...
...they had super hands-on exhibits...
...inside...
...and outside...
...of course we had to add to our rock collection...

...this pretty rock is called chalcopyrite

  2. Aah, NC is North Carolina! Mystery solved, well for me, I bet most other readers knew already. I have loved your holiday blog entries.

    Glad you are all having a nice holiday. I go on Saturday - we are going to a small town about 15 miles from Orleans in the Loire valley.

    We are staying in a cottage - very cheap - called a 'gite' in France.

    I am looking forward to it. There is no doubt that the French know how to make fab cheese!
