So many different things to look at. Offer a black light to find rocks that respond to black light.

Absolutely love this store! They have a great selection of books and gifts. I also love the selection of metaphysical books and supplies. The owner is so nice and she will order any title she doesn't have on the shelf! A true gem of downtown Alpena.
