Howdy folks,
Well my trip to the rockshow over the weekend got me hungry for a rock hunt so this morning I headed over to my friend's decorative rock pile and spent a few hours with the squirt bottle. Again, the hunting was not very good as the portion of the quarry being worked seems to be very unlike the stuff from a couple of years ago. I moved a lot of rock and only found a few pieces of interest. Anyway, here are a few pics....Mel
Nice little flower garden plume agate:
Bright yellow jasper:
Couple of small red Rio Grande moss. One on the left also has tiny orbs.
Couple of woods:
Couple of little plain agates:
My favorite and my largest find, a cool strange looking breccia that looks a bit like Stone Canyon or Forest Fire jasper;
