I love how your family is always part of your production. Take in every second with your dad. It's been 38 years since cancer took mine.
haha
@@Rp707why laugh?
@@stevenwalmsley3468 I was pretty high my good man.
Hep.
My father died on my 42.nd birthday, 9 years ago. My mother died around 27 years ago.
Remember to appreciate your family - if you can.
Dan, love your videos. Glad to see your dad back out with you
Love Dans videos. He lives my dreams ❤
Great video Dan thank you. Your Dad is looking great always fun to see you guys having a wonderful time outdoors.
Those small samples with the tiny Stalagmites which you said you didnt have any use for, could be sold as Micro Specimens....i love collecting them and im sure others would love them too. Another great video....much love to you and your family from the Wiltshire UK ❤❤❤❤
Love the videos and incorporating your family in the schemes! Keep up the great work and don't let the haters get to you. There are thousands that you inspire with your videos and GLOTD. One day I hope to take my wife out and adventure like you do!
I love the videos with your dad in them, he’s such a character! Great take Dan these were beautiful
I think about you as i walk the landscapes of my new country and admire alllllll the gorgeous stones. Wish you were here to help me Identity them. 🌺 Blessings
Amethyst, regardless of it being my birthstone, is probably my favorite...the birthstone portion DOES contribute bias, but still.
Love watching your videos. Enjoyed seeing your dad too. Thanks.
You still picked up some nice specimen pieces!
The pocket finds are the coolest looking ones. It's amazing how the ugly outside has a beautiful inside. Have a powerful day Señor Dan.
Dan. you are blessed because you still have your father around. Keep up the great work.
the geode with stalactites would be a very expensive piece if it could be retrieved as a whole. Enjoyed the video a lot !
That first amethyst was pretty! I know more purple = more desirable but it was nice!
Very interesting material you were pulling out, and how it's mined. Love those colors!! A lot different than the material I pull out here in Aransas. Great to see your dad doing it with you. Cherish that, not all of us have dad's who would want to do this with their son's.
I LOVE the ocean picture stone earrings my friend bought❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very nice colors at the end😊
That's a nice haul. Thanks for sharing Dan
Absolutely fantastic specimens!
BC has some of the best gems and minerals around!
Thanks for sharing 💎Dan!
Gee, Dan... I think that little piece at 9:48 (and others like it) would make a cool micro sculpture.
Giver a bath. Maybe a coating of CA glue or a dip in thin epoxy. Mount it to a little stainless welding rod stem. Mount that on a nice little square Walnut or Maple base. Would look awesome! :)
Dan!! I love your vids but this particular one is so exciting!! I love how you know where to go and what to look for. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with the world and having your Father along is extra special. You might not have taken such interest if it hadn’t been for your him, yes?!! Very cool!! I wish I was young again because I am so drawn to all these videos where people find Mother Nature’s treasures!!
Dan is growing his channel and I’m happy about it. Yeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! 😊
I wanna play in the dirt, too! 🥺
Hope you found a lot of pretty things!!! 😊
i know know why I love your videos. You remind me of my father, he was in contrsuction supplies and was one of the NorthEast US most well respected dealer for stone. He used to take me up to tthe Herikmer Diamond mines and we would mine the quatrz crystals for ourselves, without the power tools
I am so glad I found this channel from my chem teacher ( your sister, Darby ) using your video to teach us about many things , seeing new stuff is amazing
25:30 It's interesting that you can see triboluminescence off and on through this cutting sequence. Pretty nice! If you go to a rocky beach with smooth quartz rocks, try to pick up a couple larger ones. You can get a cool light show if you rub them together firmly in a dark place. Just don't breathe in the dust!
Good morning Dan! Thank you so much for making our Sunday mornings fun! All the best to you and your family❤
Thnx for yet another awesome movie.! Love your enthusiasm Dan.!! Keep making ppl happy and smile.!
What a fun dig! You have to love nature and all its gifts
Happy Dan is contagious. It's actually quite profound.
Oh wow… really love how you pull such beautiful things out of solid rock! ❤
The amount of time and effort you must spend editing is worth noting. One more thing I love about this channel.
Three cheers for your dad! I’m glad to see him enjoying a day of rock hounding!
Time well spent with your dad that’s what it’s all about. Thank you for sharing the video.👍🏻
Love your vids. You are so fun and enthusiastic.
Dad did a good job with the camera! Thanks for the fun, Dan.
Dan it is so awesome you get to do this with your dad. Great video as always.
I love the videos with your dad! I just want to hug you both!!
That close up cam really makes it look blue!
He said he has the camera set for gold, hence it looking blue for close-ups!
My camera was on the setting I use for taking vids of gold, which is skewed into the blue range. Otherwise that camera makes all gold look red. But with the low lilght in the trees, it realy made these look blue rather than purple.
Dan is the amethyst you find at this site facetable? Some of those crystals looked amazing!
That's a nifty lil rock saw, where did you pick it from?
Remember Dandalf, don’t feed the trolls and pay no mind to the haters. Just keep doing what you do. You are loved. 😉💙
The Dad is Back ! Happy to see he is up about and doing well !
Wow those are beautiful! The one you cut for the camera looks like a storm over the ocean. Would be an awesome addition to any rockhounds collection
Productive day. Thanks for taking me along to watch.
You find the most amazing most beautiful crystals and gems!!! I'd love to do what you do!!! ❤ Thanks for always sharing your adventures with us!!!! YOU ROCK!!!!😉
Gosh I’d love to do this. I’m trying to learn more about geology and mineralogy, maybe someday I’ll stake a claim of my own ❤
Always in anticipation of your great show. Thank you
Dan you are a joy. I love these forays onto your claims. Thank you
Fantastic adventure. Fantastic results too!
So nice to see you and Dad out and about.
Always love to see a herd of Hurds on Dan's videos!!
Awesome work Dan & Dans Dad. Those are so beautiful.
Beautiful pieces you found there my friends ! and another great video Dan !
I've never seen a blue amethyst before!
So glad to see your dad Dan!
I would have clicked faster if I knew your dad was joining. :) Always fun to see a change in dynamics like that on a youtuber I have watched for awhile. (You should add "with dad" to the end of your title)
Dad Hurd! Love to see you! Love your videos, Dan. I'm in the 108 Mile Ranch now, from Chilliwack, and i feel a connection to so many of the areas that you work in. I absolutely love your content. 😊
plz do a precious opal video! would love to see that😍
love your videos Dan ❤ they are the best escape ever ❤ wish I had such a tight family 😅😢
A little late, but the murder goats escaped, and had to round them up! 😂
Thanks for the awesome adventure, and the hunt!
This is the episode I’ve been waiting for. I love amethyst geodes.
I liked the basketball reference thanks Dan always there for all your viewers
wow, that's really cool, I'm really interested in gemstones.
Great to see you and Dad back at it.
Good video Dan, good to see you out with your dad.
On my trip across canada i found amber, and massive 45lbs chunk of dark grey chalcedony on the host rock.
Lots of red jasper and some green..
In Honduras on a island close by, i found a bunch of bright mountain dew geeen chalcedony, all hand fillers perfectly polished by the ocean..
I always look forward to your videos!
that blue is beautiful
Love your show. They found 29 tons of amethyst in the Pilbara of Weatern Australia recently. Fantastic find I hear. 11.12am Tuesday here in WA.
EPIC!! While your back was turned hunting amethyst and other goodies I’m pretty sure I saw an ounce gold chunk roll down the river lol..
You could make a night light with the rock wall that was super thin, could even be realistic cave scene
Great video..:loved that your Dad accompanied you.
Hey hey, loely video, i think u should use some water on this kind of spots
Its good that you get to spend time with your dad!
Not gonna lie, didn't know that Amethyst can be that kind of blue. I always thought that it's more like fake heated amethyst/ quartz crystal. It looks beautiful!
Can barely wait. Always a great experience watching and learning.
wow so cool, i really enjoy watching your videos.👍👍
Hiya. Did you say that someone had been on your claim ? Must be heart breaking to know people are taking from your claim. Great video Dan. Nice to see your dad with you. 👍🏻
Amazing pieces dan
Incredible finds!! That amethyst water level agate looks like a SHARK!! 🦈🦷 Thanks for sharing!! ROCK ON!! 😁👍🏻🪨⛏️
Thanks, Dan amazing Amethyst
Ty for the adventure have a great day
I find it interesting how they resemble oysters in shape, often flat on one side and rounded on the other.
This is for the small number of Negativites,
Dan Hurd, his Father and family, are really great people.
If someone can't say something positive, perhaps they should
heed the adage about not criticizing someone until
you've walked a mile in their moccasins.
Dan is a sincere sensitive person, and some of the false incidents he's had to
address in the past, had to have been unpleasant
I have made it a habit of being positive on all the websites I visit, with only
very rare exceptions.
So be kind, be good, be helpful, not hurtful and most of all,
be informed before you reply.
Just Saying,
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Great job
I love you Dan, let's find some gold!
Greetings from The Netherlands.
Between stars in the sky, grains of sand on the beach, and mining claims owned by Dan, I think Dan has the other 2 beat.
I really want to do this work and i have collected lots of stones!
Love this one!
Дякую, чудове відео! Дуже цікаве родовище, та гарний результат! Вміщуюча порода мабуть базальт, або андезито-базальт, класика жанру. Лава була не дуже рідкою, бо газові пустоти не встигли набути більш округлоЇ форми. Так, агати та кристали гарні, трохи схожі на Іджеванські агати АрменіЇ з Кавказу. Всього доброго, хай щастить! Привіт од геолога з УкраЇни!
Just Beautiful ! ! 👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks again Dan. Made the morning .eh
AWESOME!!!
Good stuff‼️
Dan’s Dad “Nothin but rim” made me chuckle
Hi Dad 😊 Hi Dan 😊
Great video. Wondering if the thin shelled ones would shatter while you are cutting them
🙂🧡👍Thank You Dan really Enjoyed Your Video Watching from NB Canada🙂❤👍
Wow the colors in those geodes are amazing
Nice rocks!
