With the weather cooling down it's time to move inside and get back to messing with rocks.

A few I got done last week.

The first two are from rocks we collected in Nevada.

The last two are from some rocks we found one day when

we sneaked over the border into Utah.

Thanks for looking.

No. Had one when I was building log furniture, but after my heart attack I decided I didn't need to be dragging logs around anymore and let that all go. Then I started dragging rocks around. Makes sense, eh?
