“Growing up, my grandfather, Papa, had a rock tumbler in their garage, and every summer when I came to Colorado to visit, he’d let me pick out whichever I (then an 8-13 year old, rock loving, little girl) deemed the most beautiful, which I took home and added to my “rock collection,” which dovetailed nicely with my interests in the earth science classes I was taking in school, and our family’s love of all things outdoors. While my rock collection eventually fell out of favor (and is probably stashed in a box in my parent’s basement), those years of learning about and collecting different types of stone remains a fond childhood memory – one that I’m sure could only be made more fun with a hobby rock tumbler of my own! They didn’t quite make them like this (at least, not this quiet!) twenty+ years ago, or it would have made my Christmas to find one under the tree. Now that they do, I hope your rock-loving little one (or the kid in you) has so much fun discovering, collecting, and polishing rocks!” ~ Jayne aka Mrs Funtober
