MN Trip -- Second Post

One day while in Minnesota, we decided to head up to Duluth as well as Gooseberry Falls. We didn't do much agate hunting, as there was not time, but we did stop by one beach. I found a few carnelian chippers, but these beaches on the north shore are too accessible to traffic. They are very picked over.






We also visited friend, Terry Roses, at his store Fragments of History. If you are in the Duluth area, you must stop by. Below are several of the specimens he loaned us for the book photography.



Tarry has a lot of great rocks for sale, as well as some that are not. Here are some of the latter.


Terry loves showing off his agates, as do many of us. He was entertaining us with some of the special specimens.


Here is a shot of Terry and his assistant, Leslie. We had a blast hanging out at the store.
