Hi all! I'm Gwen. I'm mom to 3 grown daughters, and Grandma to 1 amazing granddaughter. I live on the Alabama Gulf coast- about 30 minutes from the beautiful beach. I LOVE the outdoors, travelling, flower gardening, crafting, etc.. One of my favorite past-times is playing with my shelties, Marshall, Teddy and Barney. I also LOVE rocks! :-) Most (pretty much ALL) of my rock collection is either from online purchases or some that I've picked up while vacationing... We just don't seem to have as much pretty or unusual stuff here on the coast... I just placed my first order from WeFossick, so I am sure that I will be asking for some tips as I do my first tumble. :-) ESPECIALLY excited to get the Laguna Lace Agate!
