    Anyone else notice the bumble bee on the fuzzy thing during the intro. Glad a bee sting was not added to the fall. Great, great pet wood! TY

  • @sarejen6868
    @sarejen6868 4 года назад +1

    Oh man if the mud sucked your shoes off and took them under to never be seen again years and years from now investigating the site will know you escaped but WHAT were you doing out there?! Hopefully the dunking wasn't too bad just a bit of cooling off. Some nice finds on your adventure! You've sacrificed to the river so maybe it will give you some very awesome agate to find 😄😉

    • @KatyDidRocks
      @KatyDidRocks  4 года назад +2

      I think that's true! The mud was next to a river bank - the silt gets suspended in the water, so the mud gets really deep. I knew it would be muddy, but O.O! It's ok, though - the only thing I was in danger of was getting very dirty. When the river drops, I might try to retrieve them - I know exactly where they are. And yes, perhaps the sacrifice will be enough to appease the river.

    It did not surprise me one bit that after getting "dipped" in the river you just kept on looking for rocks lol. Perhaps next time you can take your swim after you loose your shoes lol. Can't wait to see what is inside a couple of the rocks you found today ( the big yellow knobbly one for starters). Sorry I missed you live but I enjoyed the hunt none the less :)

    • @KatyDidRocks
      @KatyDidRocks  4 года назад +1

      That big yellow nobbly one is jasper - it probably looks very much the same inside as out. I'm considering listing it on my Etsy store, because a number of people seemed enthused about it.

    • @sarejen6868
      @sarejen6868 4 года назад

      Some of the petrified wood is MILLIONS of years old. Possibly living trees when dinosaurs walked the earth! They can date the petrified wood somehow but the researchers that do it have labs available to them to do it, for us rockhounding nuts out of our price range.

    • @KatyDidRocks
      @KatyDidRocks  4 года назад

      SareJen is right - although it doesn't NECESSARILY take millions of years, much of the wood is VERY old. I have a video about how it's made: ruclips.net/video/TwJtSVpCxc8/видео.html

    At least you fell in on a nice day! And at least the water broke your fall; when I fall it’s always on rocks or cement! That large piece of agatized wood is gorgeous! Here’s a question...any tricks of the trade when you can’t tell if it’s pet wood or just a rock? I find smaller pieces of petrified wood and sometimes it’s really hard to tell the difference.

    • @KatyDidRocks
      @KatyDidRocks  4 года назад +1

      Petrified wood generally has a very clear grain running lengthwise along the rock. There are sedimentary rocks that look an awful lot like petwood, but you can tell the difference by looking at the end. Sedimentary rocks will have the same bands running across the top, whereas petrified wood will look different.
