Hi Mike, Pretty good collection! I think some of your new rocks will change colors once the oxidation layer and/or the desert varnish is ground off. Thanks for the snake video! Hope the weather allows your gang to get some fossil collecting in! Thumbs up! Stay safe.....rattle..rattle! Jim
I couldn't tell for sure because you were flipping rocks so quickly at the end, but the rock on the bottom right that you said had some clear chalcedony in it appeared, to have a little bit of blue chalcedony, which would be the NE gemstone.
Where to start?? Seems the truck that got stuck was a Ford. Please tell me a Chevy pulled ya out. Next you have me looking through the parking lot rocks of big box stores and Walmart. No need to travel. Lastly a family friend used to go to the "Rattlesnake Snake Round-up" every year. It moved from state to state but they went out chased snakes and had a big cookout at the end of the week. Rattlesnake tastes a lot like chicken. Much easier to just buy chicken. Just saying. Have fun be safe y'all.

Glad you found some keepers! Looking forward to seeing them cut and/or polished. Thinking some of them are going to be beautiful!

Nope! Fairburn Agates aren't the official rock of NE. The Prairie Agate is.
