“I was a rock hound for years. I mined crystals all over the country. Whenever I see something shiny on the ground, I want to pick it up and see what it is. I mined all 48 states. Fluorite, amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz, Herkimer diamond, labradorite, fire agate, lace agate, geodes. Petrified wood and Herkimer diamonds are my favorite. Herkimer diamonds because I could give a girl a diamond any time I wanted to, and they were the first real crystal I started mining. I tracked down a form of black petrified wood that wasn’t known to be in existence, and I’m the only one who knows where it is. Whenever I go get it, everyone freaks out.”
