Howdy folks, Too a break from the horses and my deck staining today and went on a little rock hunt to the Eagle Pass rock pile. Pretty good day today. Found about 5# of petrified wood and maybe twenty of nice Rio Grandes. Also found some good jasper, wonderstone, flint that looks almost like Willow creek, and orbicular rhyolite. Pretty much had a five gallon bucket full in two hours. freaking camera is giving me fits ( battery must be low) so I only photographed a few of my finds. here are a few pics
The pile of Rio Grande agate. Mostly reds and golds but my close up pic of the reds was not recorded for some reason.
Rio Grande mosses:
Bottom one has nice red sagenite:
left one is orbicular rhyolite, right is yellow plume:
Don't know what this stuff is, I guess either flint or a more milky agate but these have cut fantastic slabs when I've sliced them before.
The pet wood. Been finding very little of this lately.
