Indeed, there may not be a lot of rocks, but there are always COLLECTORS
and CLUBS!
Mineral collecting is always what we make of it... I love taking the
students to the basalt quarry, where they stand confused for a while,
occasionally banging on a boulder with an Estwing hammer, whereupon the
hammer usually bounces back. As soon as I crack open the first pocket
with calcite, aragonite, siderite, or "opal pearls," though, they spring
into action with renewed interest.
I would imagine there is a lot more in Florida than most people expect.
