Fun day picking river rock yesterday. Lots of agates. My friend found a nice Fairburn, probably worth $300-$400

Those are gorgeous! When I was a young marble shooting hustler, agates were what all the hustlers used as a shooter! :D

You just picked them out of the river?

Same here... I had some really beautiful agates as shooters. My fav was a chocolate one with white stripes! I spent a LOT of time practicing! I was also proficient with tops & yo-yos!

Wow. Used to be a place here where for a couple of bucks you could break all the apache tears out of the soft rock that you wanted. There is a huge rock wall that stands in Apache Lake now with geodes allover it. Rock hunting is just one of lifes simple pleasures.:cool:
 
Those are cool! We toss stuff out of our dredge that looks like that, maybe i should pay more attention :D

Yes it is my friend, yes it is. I went arrow head hunting for my first time today. Went with a guy whose been doing it 60 years (same guy who found the fairburn last trip). I found a few napped stones like they used for skinning. He found an awesome Clovis point (Palio)
 
My brother in law lived in central MO near a creek. He would find arrowheads there regularly. He had a couple of smaller ones so perfectly formed they looked like they could have been laser cut.
