Roger Spurr's may think like I do, that is a crystallized animal head. Beautiful dude.

It's like a drug to me when rockhounding. When I find something I get a high from it. Does anyone else feel this way.

I really appreciate the fact that you take long, steady looks at your rocks. They are so interesting--and beautiful--we want to spend some time with these amazing finds.

I want to go out too, but it’s 6 am and still dark.

When I was a kid there was a giant agate , about 5 feet tall and around 3 1/2foot in diameter that was a field we rode bikes in . The colors were amazing , had botryoidal , lace , all that you want in a superior agate , it had been pushed down by glaciers I imagine . I kept trying to get my dad to help get it , he wouldn’t , plus I don’t know how many tons it was . That agate was worth a bunch of money (I had no idea at the time) . There are houses in that area now .

Not as spectacular color wise, but the banding is gorgeous. If you ever get to Louisiana, lots of agate here.

Hey there Agate Dad, Thank you for sharing your finds! I’m from Tacoma WA and I drive all the way to Maryhill State Park on the Columbia river to find small agates , bits of jasper chips and lots of small agate chips which I glue onto bird houses. I love finding bits of pottery also. But what really stokes me is seeing and hearing the elated and well known laugh you do when finding a cool agate! I can so totally relate and it is just so awesome to watch you and Bill laugh and giggle and freeze your fingers off and find so much enjoyment with these beautiful treats. I do hope you tumble them. They turn out even more gorgeous! Glad you are having fun! Wish I lived out there! happy trails kid...

I love the hunt. We spent 8 days on the Oregon coast and it was very hard to leave. It was my first official hunt and it was amazing. Found so many beautiful agates. Love to see that you get so excited when you find a beautiful piece like that white agate. Thanks for sharing! Love your videos!

Oh the chuckle that just erupted from within me. How thrilling. Im literally tickled.

The first thing out of my mouth on seeing this?!? “HOLY SHXXXT!!!”. Sorry, couldn’t help it! That’s why I’m always so reluctant to leave the beach or rock pile- I always think there COULD be the best rock I’ve ever seen, just in the next swipe, or scoop, or foot! Congratulations, my rock-hunting/loving/crazy brother! WOW!!!😍😍😍
