Re: “If you find plenty of them . . . and they are real pretty inside . . . Can I get you to send me a few?”
Since it's all hypothetical at this point - whether I actually do it, whether I find some geodes, whether they are plentiful enough that I have some to give away, whether they're pretty - okay, sure!

But go watch some youtube videos on "how to open a geode" and you'll see that there are MANY types of geodes, some with a hollow center the size of a pea while others are bigger; some including purple amethyst while others have orange or mostly white interiors, etc. In short, they mostly don't look like the geodes you see in rock stores selling for $50 apiece.

I'll report back as I usually do and tell you guys how it goes, boom or a bust. It does sound like it could be fun though, doesn't it?
