Hi,

Grew up on the Texas gulf coast, graduated from Texas State, taught school for a few years then worked in the golden gulf coast oil and chemical industries til 1989 when I moved to Raleigh to work providing computing support for research and development scientist in the  pharmaceutical industry.  Was always way too busy to stop and smell the rocks during my 37 years of work!work!work, but am retired now and eager to learn more about the physical sciences, mining and anything rocks.

There's creeks running everywhere in my neck of the woods - I even have one running through my back yard - so I've been doing creek crawling before I even knew there was a name for it.  It would take me years just to walk the creeks in this area alone...and I'm eager to give it a try.  Why? Because I don't know much about it but do find it fascinating what all you can learn from a rock - fun stuff.

Cheers,
L82Play

Another propitious proselyte prospective prospector prospect!
Yes siree, L82Play, a man with alliterative talents can go a long way around here,
that's why we call it Creek Crawlin'.
Welcome to the Board,

Welcome, cousin!

You sound like an interesting character. You will fit right in with the wonderful folks I have met in person from the Lounge.
