    I enjoy the two of you, your humor and how you play together! Pretty drive up, nice area there, love all the nature around you. Lots of cool stuff to look through there, love how water flows over this earth, amazing! Pretty day and cool finds too.

    I love Rocky! ❤ So I finally see the famous agate creek! Looks like you all had a really great day! I was looking at the geodes in the bank while you were focused on agates. 😂 Even though you didn’t find what you usually collect, it was still a beautiful, peaceful day! Thanks for the video!

      @@mria621 I didn’t see any geodes in the banks. Yeah I know there’s good agates in this creek but you probably have to go a ways away from this access point. A side by side or good 4 wheel drive would give you a better chance at getting further in to find them. It was definitely still a fun day.
