That is odd... The pictures show up for me which is going to make it tougher to troubleshoot.

Pics show fine for me from right when you posted them.
I need a barn like that near by!
Red slab in 3rd pic needs a close up.

My dads. We lost a couple of hundred pounds of petrified wood when my granddad sold his farm and no one could get back to retrieve it. Nice stuff from the Elbert area in Colorado. I am also looking for several pounds of turquoise that has to be out there somewhere.

I did not know my dad had this many types of rock and also thought that all of them had been with the petrified wood that was lost at my Granddads. Makes this pretty sweet.

coloradocliff Slow connections sometimes result in boxes with x's and since these were big photos they probably would have eventually loaded for you. Barns are great for finding old cars, motorcycles, machinery (even rock saws), and memories of days on the farm. Congratulations on finding memories along with the rocks.

Thank you Tom for the insight on big pictures loading. Will be more patient. My barn and old garage has rock saws and arbors, rocks and memories. grin Right on Brother.

Hi - just FYI Imgur does not allow 3rd party linking - they are a social media site and don't want to become just another image host. If they decide to enforce their TOS it's going to do further damage to our forum that already looks like swiss cheese from the photo bucket disaster. I know people here would have a major sh*t-fit if I blocked Imgur but my gut tells me I should do *something* because each Imgur link that gets created with each passing day is added risk when they decide to get serious about enforcing their stated policy:
