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.
Often found in North America, Central America, South America and Namibia, and a common sight in museum gift shops, geodes are rock formations that involve a variety of minerals. At its most basic, geodes are rocks with an interior cavity lined with another mineral. The name geode comes from the Greek word âgeodeâ meaning âearthlike.â This name is fitting as many geodes are round, like little planets--worlds of light and stone unto themselves capturing fascination wherever they are discovered.
