Well she did it again yesterday; found at Castle Butte. I think my wife had a palm root detector or something. She was pulling interesting stuff out of the road and asked me to move the truck so she could see what was under it. This was under it!

Jasp-agate? That what it looks like to me and yes does look like a dense moss in there. Much better description of it. There is some purple and other colors embedded in there. If it holds a shine at all I'll be stoked and would likely be up there with my best finds. I might hit one of those grooves with a chisel to knock a chunk off. jasoninsd I looked it up but I didn't see a good example that matched. I swear it looks like something I've either tumbled or have in the to-do crate

Did you find my earrings? I lost them about 2-3 years ago. Millions of years in the future, someone will crack open a geode and voila!

I swear it looks like something I've either tumbled or have in the to-do crate I absolutely KNOW I've slabbed something that's the spittin' image of that piece. I might be digging through some bins tomorrow...if I run across it, I'll post a pic.

It definitely has the “seen it somewhere before” going on with it.

Here's the piece that immediately came to mind when I saw yours: If memory serves me correctly...which it doesn't always! LOL - I think this piece came from aDave...

I showed my wife and she said werewolf too! A saber tooth tiger is a good match too. It actually reminds me of Evil Ed from the original Fright Night; the kid who got turned into a werewolf and they burned a cross into his head, I can even see the cross but that might be my imagination lol…
