Learn to Identify Lake Huron Rocks with Two Geologists

Rob I found this lesson in geology fascinating!! At 70, I still have so much to learn about rocks. I've always looked at rocks and wondered what they went through to form them into what we see when we find them. Growing up, we always looked for Lake Superior Agates. Your channel has helped me to gain appreciation for other rocks!

[@MichiganRocks]

There are lots of pretty rocks on the beach, but agates are like the grand prize.

We ended up just chipping a piece off to prove our story. Love the videos, but most I love the rocks, because Michigan "ROCKS"

@@MichiganRocks Always liked to see what was round the next bend! And I'm sure glad I did it when I could, as now I'm just going round the bend!! (On the off chance I might be mobile once again!) It does amaze me when someone says here we are on the Columbia River, on Grandfather Mountain, Porcupine Mt., Campbell River, some desert ghost town like it's something special & I think, I've been there!! So grateful I always liked travel more than shopping!!
