  • I absolutely love the state of Kentucky and the rich mineral and fossil hunting opportunities that the state offers. We were traveling back to Florida from Michigan and had to spend a day in the state collecting a load of geodes and agates to cut open on the saw. It was a ton of fun, as always and we already cannot wait to get back up here and hunt more!

      It's bindweed. The flowers are almost identical but the leaves give it away. Beautiful and highly invasive. The vines wrap around each other and form very strong ropes to take down anything around it.

      @@DarioK04 You can't tell by the colour, they all have spines but the common tends to have more spines than the red, every now and then you'll get one with no spines at all which that one looked like, the only real way to tell them apart is the flowers common has white flowers and red has red flowers hence it's name, also the common is most commonly found in woodland like where they are, however the red is found in parks, gardens, and streets as it is a cross between the common chestnut and red buckeye and is grown in urban areas for it's colourful red flowers.

    We were in this same creek recently. I would love to meet up to rockhound next time you are in the area. My wife and I have been cutting the last 3 hours. Got some nice pieces. Also we could plug up your saw to my truck down in the creek and cut at location. Not having to walk back out with buckets of geodes is a game changer. Water levels are at lows right now since we have had no rain up here for weeks.

      Do you mean morning glory? Is that the same as bindweed?

    I had a round Geode and when it was cut open it has beautiful Amethyst in it and the opening is heart shaped. One side of it has a rock sticking out of the Amethyst with clear crystals on it.

    You guys should come up to the Red River Gorge here in KY and rock hunt some. Land of the Red agate here, plus those beautiful geodes.

    You guys found some awesome geodes! Love the ones with agate banding, the bots and druzy covered bots, and the beautiful tiny crystals and crystal covered little balls. At least the solid ones, that weren't crazy, had some agatey/chalcedony goodness in them. Did you find any geodized fossils? Just curious. Thanks for sharing!✌️🤠

    The white flower was hedge bind weed. The orange at the beginning looked like jewel weed which is an antidote to poison ivy. Usually grows near poison Ivy also.

    Love it!!! Also where do you find creeks in Florida for thousands of teeth? Also is there anywhere in Missouri that I can find crystal?
