Point Arena is a cool area, but the lighthouse sure can get windy.

[@Bee_Charming]

That was interesting!

Beautiful treasures! The geology lesson was fantastic. Great to spend family time enjoying our wonderful world! Thanks for taking us along.

That beautiful abalone will make awesome jewelry!!

Beautiful video! Abalone is very special to me, and the beaches in SoCal are now devoid of even a chip, but we have plenty of asphaltum. Great to see such nice pieces still being found

Cool! Waaaay back when I was a yardape, in the late 60's early 70's we were camping around Lake Superior and found some of those tarry sands. Dad put some on our fire, stunk BIG time chased off the bugs though. I don't advise trying it anymore. Abalone looks so pretty even in pieces. Thanks!!

Cool geology. That layer of oil sand must have been an ancient tropical forest. It's so thick. I've never seen a glob of that before. I wonder if native Americans made use of it in any way.

[@rebeccaofsunnybrookefarm8469]

Interesting point or question.

[@nolanphoto]

Love your videos. So calming. Have you thought about bringing a UV light with to see if there are florescent rocks on your hunts?

[@rebeccaofsunnybrookefarm8469]

That was interesting. I didn't know what that tar sand looked like.

This is one of my favorite spots for abalone shell. There's a cool sinkhole about a mile south of the lighthouse, great pieces down there if you're feeling brave and the tide is low...

[@mikemartin5938]

And once again an empty beach . Ahhh

[@kneedeepinbluegrass3086]

Right?? I noticed he picks out the perfect spots...or has lucky timing!

[@christinaphelps3766]

I have a HUUUGE collection of the agate nodule you show at the beginning. I thought they were agateized or petrified whale bone? I can see the fibers and tissue details in a lot of mine. I am in southern California and rockhound Ventura and occasionally Santa Barbara. Petrified wood and bone as well as chalcedony, jasper and agates are what I look for. Keep up the quest!

[@Jason1975ism]

I wonder if the natives used that tar for anything? Does it burn easily? Can they extract bitumen from it? Very cool!!

[@davidingham4542]

next time you go to point arena, keep walking out to the point.. keep your eyes open... you missed the main thing out there if rocks be your thing.

This guy would flip out if someone gave him a quart of oil.
