Hi Guys! I finally cleaned up the last batch of rocks from my papa and grandma‘s estate. I know from my last post that I’m not supposed to get some of them wet but they were filthy so I had to clean them before bringing them into the house. Any feedback you have is appreciated. if you saw one of my previous posts, you’ll know that my grandparents collected rocks in Arizona, Wisconsin and Illinois. Most of these are probably from Arizona. I think the one piece of orangish petrified wood #3 is very cool. I would love to know if any of the other ones are petrified wood. To me it’s sort of looked like a pork tenderloin when I was cleaning it today! Maybe that’s just because I didn’t stop for lunch. Ha ha. It was so fun to spend time looking at each and every one. I have a critter living in one of them. Some sort of insect. I did my best trying to encourage him to get the heck out today using water and air but I might have to pull out the tweezers tomorrow! Thanks for looking and have a great week…

Picked up a couple rocks from a river while hiking in Montana between Bozeman and Big Sky; each weigh about 1.5 pounds, and seem heavy for size which is about 5-6 inches in length. I think one is petrified wood with what I think is called a stone concretion on back. The other one I’m not sure, I thought it was cool and threw it in my luggage on my return to Indiana. I posted both rocks on social media and I started getting replies saying it could be an egg. Can anyone help me identify each rock?

a new side of pertrified wood in north china. every where scattered. May fall off the cliff on to cars passing by beneath. big or thin one can not step into the same river for a second time, but a log could lay down in water again, after 300 million years. the vascular tissue under scope
