    I think I have it figured out. When you start to go out, you schedule a train load of agates to come by and dump them along the river for you. 🤪😊👍 Keep the goodness coming. Be happy, safe and stay healthy. Woof to chopper!

    I met up with a friend of mine from Arizona and we did some great rockhounding together! Lots of great finds including one of my favorite Montana agate finds ever! It has an incredible yellow-orange glow to it with a detailed banding pattern across the top that is simply stunning. I keep getting coral and petrified palm wood mixed up. So, 6:30 is actually agatized palm wood. 12:15 is a type of coral known as the tabulate coral Halysites. 17:13 is an agatized horn coral. 20:07 is a fossilized gastropod.
