I'm what is referred to as a 'Rock Hound'. I love geology and I would have become a geologist - but I couldn't do the math. Hahaha!
But I can still study it and collect rocks and minerals to my heart's content - and date nice Geologist men.
- This is a Utah mineral VARISCITE. From a chunk of it a clever and skilled artist/sculptor carved this frog.

Ancient Egyptian Frog Goddess

  • Heqe (Egyptian แธฅqt, also แธฅqtyt โ€œHeqtitโ€), sometimes spelled Heket, is an Egyptian goddess of fertility, identified with Hathor, represented in the form of a frog. To the Egyptians, the frog was an ancient symbol of fertility, related to the annual flooding of the Nile.
