This is a very pleasant rock shop with terrific specimens, a lovely owner, and reasonable prices. They have items in every price range, polished stones to rough specimens, wind chimes, jewelry, etc. Something for virtually everyone, when house guests want to purchase souvenirs (or rocks or crystals) we bring them here. Love this place.
