Happy hour every day from 4:00 to 5:00 pm, and then we go home. It has been said more than once that we should keep track of what we discuss because every day is a new adventure.
Yesterday I showed them my new toe socks. My toes are in love with each other, and when I walk, and I do a lot of it, my toes develop corns, calluses, and other interesting formations. I have tried lambs wool, Band-Aids, you name it. Toe socks are my newest and best solution.
Our discussions take on many forms. The one above led to interesting rock formations. Petoskey Rocks were the next round of rock talk.
Butch and I workamped in Northern Michigan one summer season. There was a gravel pit on my regular morning walk, and I discovered Petoskey rocks.
Found on the Internet in case you are interested.
Petoskey stones are fossilized coral that were once part of a reef about 350 million years ago, now primarily found on the shores of Lake Michigan. They are characterized by a honeycomb pattern of six-sided corallites, the skeletons of the ancient coral polyps. These fossils are considered a prized rock for collection and crafts due to their distinct appearance.
This is not an unusual occasion at Happy Hour. Personally, it is a refreshing part of my day, and I nearly always find out something I didn't know before.
