Rocks from Phil on the hill

hunting rocks in the cold

Who says you need warm weather to rock hunting. If you got friends like mine you can go rock hunting in any weather. Me and my daughter just load up and go visit our buddy on the hill and he loads us up every time. This time we got a lot of Montana agate, petrified wood, chunk of opal, moss agate, Brazilian agate, and various others. He gave us little rocks big chunks and slices of all sorts. So go ahead cold weather hit me with your best shot bring the snow you don't scare me I have my secret spot picked out. I've already been rock hunting 3 times this year once on the river twice at my friends house. Now if mother nature would just straighten up I could go find me some morel mushrooms. Later everyone will have pictures soon.

Some new rocks

Went to visit my friend on the hill the other day and you guessed it he loaded me down with more rocks. He also invited me to go along with him and his rock hunting buddy one of these days. Then he gave me a vibrator for sliced rocks but I need to find a motor for it. Then he showed me how his rock slicer operates. I will put up some pictures of my new rocks on here and on my yahoo group riverrockhounds. My first batch of rocks is going in the tumbler now. I decided to start with my petrified wood. I love my new tumbler it's so quiet compared to the last one. They are on day three of the first cycle. So I will have pictures of them too here in a few days.
