I just started all these rocks. Here are some pictures from before I loaded everything up. Earlier in the year, my mother and father in law took a roadtrip out west with their camper trailer. They started in FL and went up the west coast then cut SE back down towards FL. They brought us a bucket full of rocks back and these are some of the ones with my no experience whatsoever I determined might be good for tumbling. I'll post some more pictures after they've been in course grit for a couple of weeks. Can anyone identify any of these?

First looks like it wants to be a LSA but that makes no sense seeing where it was found (maybe chalcedony?). Fourth one looks like a carnelian possibly. Fifth one looks like chert possibly, I find similar stuff up here.
Those are best guesses based on what I know.
