good golly Brian
I thought I was having good luck
now I see

I'm walking over more than I'm finding !

I'm with Ted on that brecciated
and that yellow stuff !
I found that small piece
have you cabbed piece you can show?

have you ever found any carnelian in the phoenix area?
I found a piece but not sure of the location now
its posted in the Halloween thread

I think it was from 32nd St & Wood Ave rock field
1/8 of a mile south of I-10

Finally cooling off
so the Salt River needs a scanning

Rock on

When I look at the 10th picture from the bottom I see what looks like the face of a Pug of a guy with a foo manchu beard in the small red rock in the upper right corner.

Most of the stuff that I find like that here in WY is fractured real bad. Too much freezing up here. You have some awesome finds there. Jim

Hi Brian

those larger rocks your finding
are they coming from 1 prominent location ?

I never found a large agatty type rock yet
all the larger stuff is
either basalt or that white/green spotted stuff

hopefully it will rain Saturday morning
rocks on the storm
