    OMGosh...I could watch you all day on that rock beach!!! As a little girl I used to sit at Sunset Beach in Cape May Point, NJ surrounded by beautiful stones and Cape May Diamonds....I would be there ALL DAY...loving every precious moment and the thrill of an awesome find (all of which I still have to this day...40 yrs later.) The sound of the waves washing over the stones in your video took me right back to those wonderful days. Thank you!!!!❤️❤️❤️

    If you see this tonight, go out and look for the aurora. Look to the north, put your phone camera on "night" mode, and hold it steady while it shoots. A bright pink wave just passed Massachusetts, then went green, then just bright. Hopefully another pink wave will pass thru. We didn't need the camera to see it - the sky was bright - but it enhanced it. Pretty cool. Hopefully there's more to come tonight. The moon's already set. At first, I was like, "Did we just have a city move in, to the north?"

      I missed it. We talked about going out earlier in the day, but it was supposed to be cloudy and then we forgot about it. Several of our friends posted pictures, so we were disappointed that we didn't go out.

    An absolute pleasure to watch. The simplicity of beautiful stones and the sound of water is just pure peace of mind. Really makes me want to visit Lake Huron. Is this in a national park?
    Wondering if it would be legal if i wanted to take a few stones home to europe.

      I don't think there are any National Parks on the Michigan side of Lake Huron. There is a National Lakeshore on Lake Superior (Pictured Rocks) and one on Lake Michigan (Sleeping Bear Dunes). It's illegal to take rocks from those two places, but legal to take some on other beaches.

      Don't feel sad for them, those are the ones who continue to roam free on the beaches. It's the ones that are taken into captivity that you should feel bad for.

    You found a lot of really colorful rocks on that excursion. I wonder what a stinkstone would look like sliced. Probably like a slice of Swiss cheese. We’ve been back up here since We’d. I hope to get in a rock hunt in the next day or two. I suppose it’s a little early to break out the water shoes yet !

Can you give a couple nice easy places along US23 where she can find a pudding stone or other neat stones. It'll be her 1st rock hunt and mine and well. Thanks for all your great videos

      We just found a few small ones at the 40 Mile Point Lighthouse today. That's just north of Rogers City. There's also a roadside park about 10 miles south of Cheboygan that has a few. They're not going to be just laying around everywhere though. You'll need to do some walking and put in some time.
