HI, I love collecting rocks. Do you collect rocks
Hi, I do not collect rocks, but it seems interesting, it seems like a hobby I could get into!
It is a lot of fun, the kids love it too. If you have kids, they could love finding them and cleaning and making them into something fun. 
I know that people are getting more and more into it, amateurs can get into it for cheap, and it is good learning, I may have to give it a shot. There is some real beauty in rocks and minerals
Yes, there is. We are lucky to live in a mountain community, so just walking in our neighborhood we find a lot of interesting and pretty rocks.
And that is one of the reasons people love it, you can start just by picking up a rock!
Exactly. We enjoy painting them and leaving them around the neighborhood and at the pools in our community for others to find.
That is really cool of you, I never would have thought of that! I bet the kids love that, imagine finding a star wars rock as a kid!
They love it we even have a facebook page for our community when we find rocks or leave rocks. Everyone really gets into it. 
I am glad the founders of facebook decided to expand thier membership to more people instead of just harvard, it really has created so many communities like that! That is really cool though!
