[pct-l] Trail jewelery

[ECPG at peoplepc.com (Carolyn Eddy)]

I have to agree that talismans, (talismen?) are an important part of my 
trips, more so as I get older, and since I got sick, fewer. I'm in the 
process of getting ready to sell my house and I hope, move closer to Mt Hood 
and keep running across these things. Photos are great, but the small pieces 
of rock I just ran across from the top of Beartooth Pass (one for each trip) 
speak to me in a way that a photo does not. It's a very tangible reminder 
that I was really there and accomplished something I set out to do.My 
grandfather started this when I was young by teaching us to collect agates, 
and the "bringing home rocks" motif sems to have stuck. Needless to say they 
are very small pieces of rock. :-))
