awesome! the carnelian is gorgeous but its "belly button" cracked me up... so fun! what beautiful spheres, I find myself scanning shops and sales for them now, only have 2, but I am in trouble. They say when you acquire 3 of anything you can start to call it a collection. Do you have more vegasjames?

if they kill spiders they are OK with me... we had them in IL, I have not seen them here, will have to look them up and see if we have them in Mi. Great photos!

if you could only save one of each from a burning building which ones would you choose? you could post some of each... the forum has no limit on posts or pages of space they take up... judging from a few ever-living threads...

so maybe not fish traps but stones used as part of a camp site/village or in some sort of ritual? Native American Stonehenge? Of course that subdivision used to be wetland area before the dams were put in.... interesting!

Have you noticed gowgonda formation rock is picked almost as heavily as pudding stone? I have heard people refer to it as dark pudding stone. There was a nice example at the shipwreck sign near Blair pier this spring as part of the landscaping, and somebody has carried it off. Shoulda cemented it in place I guess. Thanks for the update. How far inland is that stone structure? Would be interesting to hear a professional archeologist explain it... cool that you found it!
