    Lucky friend! I have such fond memories of our 1970's summer family
    vacations in Door County as a kid. I don't recall what there is to
    hunt for up there other than the smooth rounded black rocks we used
    to collect oodles of along the beaches. We painted some of them to
    look like lady beetles, a popular craft up there at the time, and of
    course Pet Rocks! (remember those? LOL) There are 2 islands just off
    the tip of the peninsula that you get to by ferry. The first is
    Washington Island and the second is, ROCK Island :-) So small that
    there are no cars allowed up there and you can see all of it on foot. 


    But I'd be willing to bet you can still find plenty of those
    likeable smooth black stones lying around. Petosky stone is a type of
    fossil coral found in Michigan, not sure if those would be anywhere
    around Door County but maybe she can keep an eye peeled just in
    case.....
