I take it this guy wasn't a terribly close relative ... ?

He was my Great Grandfather's brother.

How long have you known about this guy?

Was he the inspiration for you wanting to buy that big geode that was at the Nature Company and build a shrine at the lake house?

One of my earliest memories is of the grotto. I'd be surprised if I never mentioned it.

I didn't have him in mind, but maybe there is some sort of rock fetish mixed in with the other assorted mental issues that run through my lineage.

Rocks associated with religion fetish, I'd say.

I remember you mentioning a grotto - I think I remember it at least. I don't think it was ever a "Hey! Look at this and let's talk about it a whole lot" kinda thing.

Of course, with my memory ... ?

If it makes you feel better I completely forgot about the geode.

I have yet to make my pilgrimage to the Grotto. I hear once they find out you're a Dobberstein, it's like being a celebrity.
