Maybe this is why you find more Fairburns than I do...I've stared at that ground shot for quite awhile, and be danged if I can see the Fairburn in there! LOL - It's worse than "Where's Waldo?" LOL That's why I put the picture there my friend....it's almost directly in the center, next to a larger rock... 🙂 I "thought" that was it...but be danged if I could be sure! LOL *If you're like us right now, there won't be any hunting today! We're getting slammed with snow!

Love the “In Situ” picture. Your right Jason, it is very difficult to see. I keep telling myself to take pics like this while I’m hounding to help others but I’m too excited to reach down and grab the rock so I always forget lol. I think everyone would admit it’s very educational to see these stones in their “as found state” even if it’s a alluvial find. Gotta remember to do this next time I’m out. We should start a “Do You See It?” Thread of stones in the wild and see who comes up with what. Could be a fun topic!

I think I'm headed out tomorrow to go "look" for some Fairburns...and once again...I'm telling myself to get the dang picture BEFORE I touch the rock! I love your idea of the "in situ" thread!!

I would say that I remember about 10% of the time... 😁

Sorry you got skunked, Jason, but your wife did GREAT! Freaking A right she did!! I was SO happy for her. She was laughing/crying, saying "Oh my God" over and over. It was really cool to see her that excited.

Wow, nice ones, Jason! It takes a good set of peepers to find those.

Wow, nice ones, Jason! It takes a good set of peepers to find those. I'll let her know Jean! Now if only her ears were as good as her eyes, she might hear some of the things I'm saying to her! (Of course that might just be "selective" listening! LOL) Freaking A right she did!! I was SO happy for her. She was laughing/crying, saying "Oh my God" over and over. It was really cool to see her that excited. That's awesome. You may have created a rockhounding monster! I do like it when she wants to go out...although I usually want to stay out longer than she does. I really do like it when she finds a Fairburn...it drives her to want to go out again!

I might try and call her my "wide" this morning...so if you don't hear from me anytime soon...you'll know she didn't take it well! I've been going to RRB for three years...and never found anything like she did yesterday. I was truly gobsmacked!!

miket - Those are awesome!! Better than what "I" found yesterday! LOL That first one is pretty intriguing. You know I'm not usually a fan of cutting...but that first one might be inching toward to the saw blade...
