I might be almost blind, but still have an eye for finding rocks. Good thing is that I no longer need a cane to walk.

Field was partially plowed, so I spent an hour walking an area close to house. Not the best area for finding rocks.

About 80% of what I found was good. No idea what I picked up until I washed, photographed them and enlarged photos.

Fossil corals, Wisconsin Jaspers, and something I am not sure what it is, but beautiful. (The green, pink, black and white striped one). Also found a few volcano bombs.

Cannot wait to get to the good spots on the other side of field. Long walk and just too muddy right now.

Listen to the rock. The rock knows its destiny. It will guide you in fulfilling that.

A quick scrub and ready to go. One looks like it was slabbed. The deep red one. Thank you mother nature.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
