Hi everyone, my name is Bill. I've been strangely interested in rocks since I was seven years old when my friend Jimmy cracked my head open with one. You could say it left an impression, and a big blood stain. I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for a while as a kid and fell in love with agates. But only now as retirement begs for a winter hobby, have I discovered tumbling. So, see me and treat me as a novice, please.., I do know next to nothing.

Welcome from Southern California. I LOVE your screen name. Wish I'd thought of it. I've been rollin' those rocks up and down the hill for many years. Hope you find the answers you're looking for here.

sisyphus, Welcome from California. Keep those rocks rolling uphill and down hill and all around. Not a tumbler, but there are experts here. Good luck!

Thank you all for the welcoming messages. I am still learning to navigate the forum and I may not reply timely or I may miss things entirely for a while.
