Came across some pictures from a couple of years ago. A little gravel bed at my favorite place to rockhound over by moonstone Beach in the Central California coast. Picture of the gravel, my bucket full of rocks, and a cool small one I found. But I think it's usually better in the winter time.

Bigfoot is often called Sasquatch, Yeti doesn't seem to care!

Now I can't figure out how to delete it!

We're going to spend the night at this beach on Saturday. Winter is better for rocks but they'll still be stuff there.

We were hitting Moonstone pretty regularly. Then we discovered the Inn at Avila Beach. Absolutely loved that place but I prefer the beach at Moonstone and a few north of there. Sadly, the Inn at Avila has changed hands and is not the same. The good news is that probably means more time at Moonstone!

We have a ton of them in Michigan because of the Great Lakes, always a fun variety.

dandresow: Thanks. Haven't done anything with rocks for years. Just fixed an older HP 18 inch and dug out a 10 inch and 18in Lortone and I have a couple of trim saws and need to make something to cab with. We stay broke and I only have enough to put oil in 1 Dec 1, 2024 16:49:20 GMT -5 *
