Took a long weekend trip to Minnesota, and my geologist pal and I drove up to Duluth and beyond...and came upon this great shop! So full disclaimer, we are geologists, so we might enjoy this place...

Decent place to stop and look for rocks if you're up in northern mn. Lots of different stones, little fossilized rocks and 3D bringer knick knacks. There's jewelry options too. I'd have love to...
