That middle yellow one on the bottom is amazing! I can't remember a rock so yellow.

Very cool! Ron from Ron's Rocks showed me some wonderful poppy jasper he had beach collected up north of Ventura County somewhere. He would not say where of course. Franciscan Formation cherts show up on a lot of California beaches but I've only found a very few with anything like poppies myself. Those finds of your are very nice.....Mel

I'm in Simi and would love to get my hands on some nice PJ without having to go too far (hours). If it's your secret spot and can't share, I understand. Welcome to the forum nonetheless.
