As long as we are talking casts, here are three from Hampton Butte! every wood collector needs this book! Bob, I've noticed you are proficient in identifying pet wood species. Does this book have anything to do with that? one of a number of books, not the best for ID work but great photos.

Nice ones!
It's good to see pieces that nice can still be found there. We've heard it's a lot more difficult than it was in the past.
I didn't say it was easy tho!!

The fresh depression at seven o'clock is where I had just picked up a nice coprolite. Somehow I figured that is what took place!

Doing a bit of polishing today, nice rainy day in Western Oregon. This a nice section of a limb cast from Hampton Butte, Oregon that we found last year. Happy New Year to all!

So how did this one form the way it did? 7x 5 inches. Good possibility that it is a Lucky Strike mine egg. Bought it form a gentleman at a small rock show in Burns Oregon a few years back. He said he was from Prineville, Oregon.

Just want to take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Photo was from a few years ago! Not sure if we are going to get any snow this year.

Time to wander out into the orchard and pay homage to the sentinels of antiquity. Wife thinks I'm nuts. You can keep the snow!! Your wife may be right!! Merry Christmas!

The hardest part of collecting rocks for me is making space to display it all. I wish some smart person would figure out some way to display the goodies that is more efficient than shelves. Know what you mean, if there is a flat spot in this house it has rocks on it! Walls are getting covered also!

I just realized that you're removing books (which were once a tree), from shelves (which were once a tree), to replace the books with rocks (which were once a tree)... Hmmm...I see a theme going on here! I took a lot of boards from my grandparents house when it was torn down and used some of them in making the bookshelves.
