Homesick...



This beautiful pendant is going to a Michigan girl who has left our beautiful state.


The Petoskey stone is Michigan's state stone. It is actually fossilized fragments of a coral reef from the Devonian period which occurred 350 million years ago! They can be found on the shores of Lake Michigan in northern Michigan.
