Rock Hound program at the library

Yesterday afternoon I took June, Clara, Adam, & Mason to the library in Rock Hill, where they participated in a program about rocks and minerals.  They were all pretty fired up about it, and it was definitely a refresher course for me.  Here is the lady from York County Museum showing off some of the samples she’d brought with her to Clara and June.

They’d told the kids they could bring an interesting rock, if they had one, and the experts that were there would help them identify them. Here is Adam getting his rock examined by one of the guys who is a geology major at Clemson. His rock was an agate, I think he said.
