Hi everyone!
It’s been such a long time, but it's good to see so many familiar names and beautiful shiny rocks! Life has had me take a slight break from posting regularly, but it’s all good! A new job, coaching, building a garage, some art shows and two very active high school age daughters, have kept me incredibly busy and my rock equipment a little less taxed! Lol!
I see a lot of new names too and I wanted to say hi!
I have been lurking weekly enjoying all your fabulous work and have managed to hound and polish a few Lakers. In fact, I’ve had quite a few batches finish since I last posted and thought I’d have a little fun with a multi-day post with the best from those batches worthy of photographing.
Rather than throw a ton of pics at you all at once, I’ve broken them down into 4 categories. I’ll post a few each day for 4 days, starting with Fortification Agates, the largest group. The next day I’ll post some Candy Stripers, then Eye Agates and finish with some Moss.
These are all locally hounded slices and nodules, rough tumbled in a rotary and finished in a Loto. I hope you all enjoy 4 days of Lake Superior Agates!
Thanks for taking a peek!

Next up... a few Candy Stripers!
