Hi all, I'm brand new to this site! Just found it this morning and knew that i had to be a part of this. I live in a town ( Holbrook Az.) of rocks, rocks everywhere and if you can believe it , I can't find anyone interested in doing a little rockhounding with me. They must be burned-out on rocks, if that is possiable? I don't think thats possiable for those of us that have been bitten by the rock. there are some amazing agates & jaspers here. I am going to post pics latter when I figure-out how to do it. I was born and raised in Az. and have picked up rocks all my life but never was interested in finishing or doing anything with them untill my daughter and son-in-law gave me a small tumble-vibe unit 3 years ago. At that time I think I developed OCD for the rock. Thanks for reading !

It's nice to have another addicted tumbler on board. I have a 1.5 E, a 33B and a 15 lb'er. Grew from the little 1.5 E Lortone. I am fairly new as well and always eager to see some of your tumble loads.

I would say look up the nearest club there. Bound to find some that know where the best rocks are to be found and go with you too! I am sure there are many on the forum that would love to go! Welcome to the forum! Fran
