Coal Garden follow up

I'm going to try to get caught up on some of the happenings of our lives, so get ready for some old info for some, and some pics to go along with.

This is the follow-up to our coal garden. That thing was kind of fun. Basically it just kept growing until all the liquid evaporated. It looked pretty, and was very fragile, like powdered sugar. Hard to believe it could hold it's shape! We finally got rid of it, but the kids enjoyed looking at the new crystals growing. If you get a chance to get some coal, go for it!
