My place is on the Blackfoot River between Ovando and Lincoln. I pick up some jasper and keep a bucketful around . When i have visitors , i sometimes give them some jasper - beautiful and no two are alike . My most satisfying times are picking up jasper and an occasional arrowhead and observing the scenery and wildlife - and it doesn’t cost a penny . I am very fortunate.
Have just found your videos. You have found your gold nugget, and he is driving the truck. Kudos. Disabilities come in all shapes and sizes. I am old in body, but young in desire to fish, rock hound and take driving trips. Will continue as long as I can take a step. Thank you for sharing your adventures and baring part of your soul along the way.
Inspirational! I live in TN & disabled at younger age. I’m 44 now . I rockhound too! I hope one day I can get a small camper or van & travel. I want it so badly. Ty ❤️💪💯
Oh how awesome! I love meeting fellow disabled rockhounds 😀 Hope you find lots of treasures this summer, and I hope you're able to get a camper/van someday too! We love our pickup camper. It has given us lots of opportunities for adventures and a safe/comfortable place for me to rest and take care of myself.
Oh...Joy and Jasper are your names....got it. I thought you were looking for Jasper....which it looks like you did find some. I live over the border in WA and my family and I are going to get into rockhounding. My father and uncle were rockhounds. My uncle made jewelry. It is about time I got into the hobby after all these years. Thanks for sharing a close location we can start our new journey. Be safe out there. Thanks for sharing.
I just found your videos today. I'm having fun watching some of them. I really like your rock adventures. I was looking at your videos because I need to possibly get some crutches to work with. I have a bad hip and knee. I also collect rocks. And I am a flintknapper. Some of the agate looks so good!
Thanks Gregg! I've tumbled a few batches before, but it's been a while. I hope to set up my grandfather's lapidary equipment someday and do some cutting/polishing, cabbing, etc. It'll be fun to learn! Are you a rockhound too?
@@greggwilson5221 Sometimes! There are some fossils that I find when I'm rockhounding the Yellowstone River or the Buffalo Gap grasslands that I'll take home with me, but I'm mostly an agate collector. What kind of fossils do you collect?
People from warmer areas do not understand.....getting in the cold water over your "private parts" DOES NOT HELP!!!! It is still freezing water in August. I'm HOT natured and can't do it. It would give me a heart attack. Literally. I can't go in under 80*.... By the way....you are normal in your own beautiful way. Thanks for sharing

Haha oh thank you! Hope you enjoy my other videos too 🙂
Nice finds, you are very inspirational! Do you tumble or "window" your specimens?
