Wow Sam!

Marvelous finds!

This rock looks tough to split.

Beauty, though.

Thanks Tim!

Its a nightmare lol! It always wants to split conchordially if the blocks too thin, its full faults and sand injections and the fish and plants always end up on both sides of the split!

Its still my favorite rock to hunt in though as it crops out in my home town =]

I feel your pain, Sam. ;)

Nice to have spots near home, though.
