I beachcomb in California and have been known to whoop and then rush over to complete strangers and say " look at this!" Look what I just found! 😂😂 I'm always too excited to worry if they join me or not. Lol. 😂😂😂

Isn't "corn horal" a yard game? I think you would really enjoy fossil hunting here on Lake Huron.

Just hearing your joy when you find another treasure fills me with joy. Thank yoyuu for sharing these wonderful videos with us. And the south shore of LAke Superior is the only place in the US where I have found Amethyst. And I've found great fossils there, too. Keep on hunting and posting!

Hi AD! I'm from Wisconsin and I wanted to know what beach you're at. I love your videos! As an avid rock hounder, I learn a lot! I'd love to know what location this is!

Thanks for the post AD, much appreciated! 👍 I know for me it's always exciting finding a rare or previously uncollected specimen to add to the collection and your enthusiasm is contagious. Thanks again for the sharing the adventure and goodies. Hope you have a nice rest of your week!

Another great beach in Wisconsin is Crescent Beach in Algoma, Wisconsin. So many fossils and 1/2 mile of rocky shoreline. I don't know what I'm looking at, but I always leave the beach with a pocket full of amazing stones!

So much fun!! Had a great time watching thanks.

Great video, we too get excited with some of our finds . In the short time we've been rock hounding we've been lucky to find many fossils on Lake Michigan on our western shore. Petoskey stones also. I'm expecting to rock hound Lake Huron and the Straits this Summer from our friends place. Can't wait.

I believe the host rock on your large amethyst pebble is a type of K-feldspar gneiss or granitoid. Which would be interesting since I am Alllll the way on the east coast! It is abundant on our shoreline but as far as I have seen not with amethyst attached! Nice find!

Looks like I spotted a Petoskey stone! I am a Michigander and now if you are near lake michigan you can find them!

Makes me wish i had known more about rocks when i was a kid combing the banks of the Boise River and the Snake River in Idaho. Not sure what i will find next time i go back in the summet.

Just an observation, that hilly shorline behind you is made up of red clay. You can grab a chunk of it and dry it out very slowly and make things from it.

I'm also a rockhound here in the northland and would love to compare some of my agate's and see what you think of my collection. Going to make a tabletop with most of them
