| How cute! Good to see that there are still young children who are interested in nature an who are fascinated by the beauty of minerals and the thrill and fun of collecting! I started at the age of 8 oder 9 and today, only one generation later, the kids nearly never have interests like that. They rather collect ringtones than minerals ... :-/ But the more we have to support children who join this passion. So it's really wonderful to see such a little one showing so much enthusiasm! Great!

Gail,
The woman of the post -> https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/viewtopic.php?p=7285#7285 , is not only: "A woman that I met through friends on Facebook..." but is nothing more and nothing less than the graceful Ludmila Cheshko which with her partner Michael B. Leybov, edit the fine Russian magazine Mineral Observer--Mineralogical Almanac -> https://www.lithographie.org/bookshop/no_c_mineral_observer.htm
Both are wonderful people, but her English language is just OK, that's why probably you don't noticed who she is. So, the honor of the meeting were mutual!..;-)

| Jordi -- you beat me to it! Nice to see Ludmilla, who is a good long-time friend of ours, as is Michael. Glad to see she made Denver again... as we, unfortunately, did not. The publication they put out is excellent.

| Oh how funny! We just love to chat about minerals on Facebook but I had no idea of her credentials. I loved that she was wearing a "sparkly" top, as was I. She is a delightful woman, so thanks for clarifying her status!
