Last time the Critter Man was at my place he mentioned the rock tumbler running in my utility room. Yesterday he was back to do work around my house. He sealed about 20 holes by foundation with foam. Then placed 25 bags of river rocks along foundation. When I went outside to check progress, he showed me a rock. Said that he had collected and tumbled rocks a a child. He handed me a Jaspelite with nice banding. Said that was the type of rocks he used to collect and tumble. I started looking at the rocks along the foundation. Found some Jaspers and Agates. Showed those to him. When I went out later, he handed me a couple Agates and a red Jasper. Said he would be watching for "good rocks" for me, as he has several other foundations to secure. Told me to have fun looking for good rocks by the house. Said he might have to get a rock tumbler and revert to his childhood. He had never paid much attention to the rocks he used until he saw my rock tumbler. This is one for the it's a small world files. It has rained all night here, so the rocks are wet. I might have to walk around the house and see if anything jumps out at me. Anything rock related, not critter related. This photo was taken before the rains. It shows the rocks and a one way door.

I hit it and it disappeared. Then disinfected the juice bottle so I could finish drinking it.
