You can have more than one favorite rock.

Here's another cool rock in my collection. Again, I have no idea what it is nor do I remember if I found in Oklahoma or here in northern California. I think it was Oklahoma?

I grabbed this one to give to my wife for obvious reasons. I have another heart shaped stone somewhere that's even better shaped than this, but I can't find it. We moved last year and a lot of things are still packed up.

I'm enjoying this cool rocks instance or whatever it's called. It's fun to learn about this stuff.

Found this cool rock at lake Tahoe. It has 2 white rings around it that are so perfect I thought at first they were drawn. Now it lives in my Chia pet garden. Here's an additional pic.

Found this cool rock back in 2010 on the Sylamore Trail in northern Arkansas. I thought the stains looked like a cave art figure with arms raised.

The sandstone meets the tides and it's delightfully weird

A piece of the Canadian Shield I found near a Canadian Tire, so it's extra authentic. It's hard to tell from the picture, but those bits of pyrite sparkle in the sun.

This is one of my favorite rocks, I use it as a weight for exercise and to strengthen my grip.

I found it by a creek. It fits perfectly in my palm.
