Rock on Shelf Show #83
มุมมอง 267หลายเดือนก่อน
I went to the river and it's receding, so I can find some cool rocks to cut and polish. I was walking the shallow water to see some newly turned over river cobble. I looked down and saw a green piece of mossy agate. I find this color on the river so I knew what I was picking up. It was about the size of a bantam chicken egg. Just a bit smaller of a regular chicken egg. I took it home and candle...
A quick trip to the river to rockhhound and explore the new gravel beds
มุมมอง 275หลายเดือนก่อน
I was able to find some time to get to my favorite river and see what the water level was. It is going down and seems like the run off has slowed from high water mark a week ago. I enjoy seeing how the river makes the stream bed move back and forth like a snake over the years. It looks like it won't be too long before it is short weather and the new gravels reveal themselves. Take it cool and e...
Finding a large Petrified Wood Stump in the woods
มุมมอง 179หลายเดือนก่อน
I was fortunate to stumble upon this large piece of fossilized stump of petrified wood today. This piece of petrified wood was just as it grew. The growth rings were about a quarter of an inch between years of growth. This seemed to look like an old cypress that you would see in the swamps of South Eastern United States. From what the experts say, this part of Montana was once an inland sea. I ...
A lesson with Lighting and taking cover in a thunderstorm

I found this lighting strike tree. It's just a life lesson about where not to take cover in a thunderstorm. The strike will spiral down and can catch fire and will smolder for days and in the right conditions, start a wildfire. Be safe traveling in the woods and understand the tallest tree isn't a safer place to be when there is lighting about. take it col

Here is a Yellowstone montana agate that I found in a hotel parking lot. It was found in Custer County Montana on May 22nd 2024. The hotel uses rocks xeriscape to keep the weeds down, and I look thru their rocks. I hope they don't mind. Anyway, I was careful to avoid the dog turds left by hotel visitor's pets. There were a lot of them to avoid, haha. The painting crew came in and caused a littl...
Finding ancient sea fossils in the prairie
มุมมอง 1042 หลายเดือนก่อน
I took a trip to the prairie and found some sea fossils, which I thought we ammonites but determined I was wrong. That's okay. We all make mistakes. I am lucky enough to see the countryside and not be behind a desk. I am humbled that once this whole place was underwater, and now millions of years later, it has become a prairie with abundant wildlife and geological wonders. There are dinosaur fo...

I find these rocks in NE Montana. My hypothesis is that these were deposited from the glaciers residing north. I like to polish them because they are rounded and and banded with color bands. If anyone knows what they are, let me know. Rockhounding the rivers and valleys is what I enjoy. Rocks and minerals.

Fun with my newly purchased thrift store find. A Montana made Vintage 1989 engraver

I purchased this engraver at a thrift store. It is Montana made and has a manufacturer date of 10/13/1989. This engraver was not operational, but I managed to get to work by simply making a better connection to the engraver tool, which over time, 35 years had become a loose connection and just needed a little coaxing to make a better connection while inserting the engraver tool into the unit.

Rockhounding, Wednesday the 6th of December 2023.. It has been unseasonably warm and had some free time to recreate on the river. It is snowing today. I am happy I was able to get to the river possibly for the the last time before winter takes hold. I found an interesting rock with tube shaped botryoidal columns twisted amongst dark agate crust. It seems to be cylindrical shaped and appears to ...

    Hey, I'm just watching the livestream from last night so I could read the comments. The only comments I knew about while we were live were the ones Nancy read to me. I was mostly into juggling in the late eighties while I was in college. I also ran an after school juggling club some years when I was teaching Junior high kids. I didn't go to the conventions that you mentioned, but I went to the one in Ann Arbor in the eighties that Paul Kyprie used to put on. Those were pretty well attended by jugglers from all over the midwest. I also went to one in Midland, Michigan and another in Grand Rapids in the early 90's. There were also some small ones at a couple of northern Michigan ski hills put on by a guy whose stage name was Tommy Tropic. I hung out with a couple of famous jugglers at one of those, but I can't remember their names right now. It was two guys. One was about 6' 5" and swallowed swords. They were fun.
