Arizona Vacation 7, Rock Hounding



 This great guy (Pat) is a gold panner and rock hound. My sister found out about him and asked if he might take us to find some rocks. He was happy to, and we sure did have fun! He told us to watch out for scorpions, rattle snakes, javelina, gila monsters, and wild cattle!

The terrain did not look like much, but upon close inspection you could find a variety of rocks. We found galena, quartz (including rose quartz), Apache tears, geodes, chalcedony, and a few others.
