    Oh man, you really make me chuckle, I love the bloopers!
    I'm glad everything arrived safely and I am super excited to see how you like the agates when they are all polished up.
    If you're ever in Oregon, let me know ^^

    I used to love rocks when I was a kid, but as I got older I got busy with other things. Now, half of a century later, I have renewed interest. As does my grandson. Cool channel.

      Oh he gave you some Holley Blue???? You don’t know how prized Holley Blue is for someone to have it in their collection and then send it to you. Oregon rock hounders can’t get to Holley Blue like they used to AND it’s only in one section of Oregon. Lucky girl!

    Grew up with a rockhound Mom (widow), and most summers we would ride the train from Whitefish MT to ND to visit relatives. ND had lots of agates and flint just laying around everywhere. Mom would ship a big box of rocks home. My oldest brother took a jewley making class at shop in highschool. He made us all a ring. Have gathered up rocks all over the US, to this day.

    Ooh I have a idea of where the bowenite was found, there is a variety of it called Applegate jade practically on the border of oregon and California. The fire opal im guessing was out near bly probably either from the juniper mine or the red october mine. Ive found a few chalcedony that shade of blue around the medford area of Oregon usually around eagle point and shady cove. It doesnt get as beautiful of a blue as holly blue but it can get close sometimes.

    So here in Oregon, in the Willamette Valley, anyway, bag is said like bahg, which is to say, without an accent of any kind. People actually come here to train for jobs in newscasting and the like, so that they can work in media without an accent. This place is SO thick with volcanoes, and with the coast right there, and gold mines around, there are all kinds of cool stones and minerals to be found!

    @Notabot-2112 Рік тому +1

    Alright, so I'm new here and I have a lot of questions, I'm going to put them all here, this comment might get lengthy.
    1. Do you know of any resources for finding out what kinds of good tumbling rocks are in an area? I don't live in Minnesota, and when I searched for what kinds of rocks I could find, it mostly seemed to focus on fossils and stuff like that.
    2. Do you know how loud a running tumbler is? I have no basement and thin walls, so I won't be able to hide a rock tumbler if I get one.
    3. Do you ever start with beach stones that are already rounded by waves and sand? If so, which steps do you do? Do you skip grit 1 or even 2?
    4. Curiosity this time. Have you ever found, or (more likely considering where you live) been gifted a piece of Gaspéite?
    Alright, that's all for my questions. Thank you so much if you take the time to reply, and for anyone else that answers any of these as well!
    P.S. my cat will also attempt to sit in any cardboard box, even if it's torn open and half full.
