Every time you walk through a gravel parking lot you find yourself looking more at the ground than where you're walking cause your looking for interesting rocks... Like this.... and then you end up with this.... Fossilized Clams in the parking lot... go figure !! I'm debating to open 1 just to see whats inside...other than more rock!!

I hear ya! My wife laughs at me because I bump my head on so many things because I am looking down too much.
All the clams I have seen were just full of black mud-rock stuff.

"I once had a pet named Pearl ..." :cheesy: Mario, you're just going through Stage 3 Rock Pox ... No worries, it's not fatal ... Unless your wife starts making Stone Soup with those arsenate mineral specimens ... Or you try to petrify your parakeet ... "It's an ex-parrot!!!" :cheesy:
