Cool stuff Mike. As soon as mama retires I'm gonna try to talk her into a trip over that way. Try to match the trip with Bob being home.

Conveniently pre-rounded and right-sized. I think it might be Tumble Time! You can always throw in some Montana Agate for filler.

I have never gotten the wood to tumble. It always fractures.

Those are sweet, wish we had agates like that in Vermont. Closest stuff to those I have ever been able to find was in Crestone Colorado, couple chips of jaspagate. Very nice.
