The feud between the Grangerfords and the Shepardsons can relate to how slavery collapsed and southern culture itself. Between the two families there was a lot of back and forth fighting. With slavery there was a lot of the same things.
Geodes from Southern Indiana. These are pictures from a geode collecting trip that my dad and I went on. The geodes we found in this stream bed all were eroded out of southern Indiana limestones. Geodes form in cavities that are filled with mineral-rich water, usually quartz. When the water moves through, it leaves behind the disolved quartz in the cavity.
Geodes are rock formations found in sedimentary or volcanic rock all over the world. A geode looks like a regular spherical rock from the outside, perhaps a bit lumpy, but inside it contains mineral deposits or crystals.
