Rock Mining

We took the kids rock mining at Rugles Mine while we were in Vermont. They mined for pyrite, quartz, mica, and other things that I can't really see the point of having ALL over the house.

However, I must say that the mining process is tremendously fun (actually it's A LOT like archeaology). By the time we were done everyone glittered with mica and we were all soaking wet and tired. A great time!
