Thats pretty cool. I think my family got theirs from Nevada or NM. maybe. The stuuf was different color though.:D
Yeah it depends on what kind of soil it was in, This stuff came out of a sandy soil. I know it is really heavy. Been collecting this wood for two hunting seasons, When the hunting slows down i go and dig petrified wood.lol

Did you happen to find that chunk while at deer camp???:givebeer: Pretty cool stuff, I would love to find some wood like that!!
Yes, actually i found three trees.

Haha reminds me of when I was a kid. Grandfather and Grandmother took my oldest cousin out west on vacation. They brought back a bunch of that stuff. I was amazed. Later I was told it was illegal to take that stuff. I always thought Gramps was a criminal for taking it.:D
Well i didn't know it was against the law, I figured it may be on stae or forestry land.

That red saw of yours should take care of that!
No challenge for it.lol

That's one of my MIL's holiday fruit and nut cakes.

I didn't realize you were on the Christmas list.

Word of warning...it's worse coming out than going in.;)

Stay safe!

Be nice to find some dino bones, But don't think any is there. But ya never know.

I highly doubt those objects were dino bones....but some of those objects might could be coprolites...or as we say in the modern vernacular..."petrified dinosaur turds"....and yes....those items do get found by archeologists...

Nah none of them are bones, They all came off trees. Most of them were the limbs off this big one. It would be neat to find some old bones though.
