[Rockhounds] Learning Curve for Geology - was MR Texas Supplement

[Kreigh Tomaszewski]

For the past several years our Club has had held 'A Winter Field Trip 
To Basements'.

A handful of members agree to open their homes, and collections, for 
six hours, on a specific weekend date.

I did it a couple years ago and my wife freaked out about my basement 
(some/much cleanup assumed); the Club loved it.

Collections should be shared!
