We Cracked and Cut Open BEAUTIFUL Kentucky Geodes and Agates On a Rock Saw!

I absolutely love the state of Kentucky and the rich mineral and fossil hunting opportunities that the state offers. We were traveling back to Florida from Michigan and had to spend a day in the state collecting a load of geodes and agates to cut open on the saw. It was a ton of fun, as always and we already cannot wait to get back up here and hunt more!

That round thing you busted open is called a buckeye old-timers used to keep them in their pocket supposed to give good luck and help with arthritis

You'll find them in Ohio and such too. What they found was one that was just fresh off the tree

Your white flower growing on a vine is a morning glory

[@mollypanek9507]

It's bindweed. The flowers are almost identical but the leaves give it away. Beautiful and highly invasive. The vines wrap around each other and form very strong ropes to take down anything around it.

[@cellogirl11rw55]

That's definitely not a morning glory. Morning glories are more colorful, and they grow on a bush that is highly toxic.

[@thomasflynn5366]

I also believe it is morning glory. Morning glory can be from white to blue or purple and is definitely a vine not a bush.

[@C.CUMM1NGS]

7:06 that's a (conker) (horse chestnut) (Aesculus hippocastanum) Not to be confused with sweet chestnuts that you can eat, these ones are poisonous.

[@DarioK04]

I would say that it is an Aesculus x carnea "briotii" because Aesculus hyppocastanum has a light green bowl with spines.

[@C.CUMM1NGS]

@@DarioK04 You can't tell by the colour, they all have spines but the common tends to have more spines than the red, every now and then you'll get one with no spines at all which that one looked like, the only real way to tell them apart is the flowers common has white flowers and red has red flowers hence it's name, also the common is most commonly found in woodland like where they are, however the red is found in parks, gardens, and streets as it is a cross between the common chestnut and red buckeye and is grown in urban areas for it's colourful red flowers.

[@DarioK04]

@@C.CUMM1NGS 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@lefthandluke8923]

Close, but I'm pretty sure that's a yellow buckeye (aesculus flava aiton). Native to that specific area (Kentucky).

[@leahwinn482]

My grandson lives in Indianapolis and is a junior rock hound. Loves watching your videos and planning his next rock hunting Expedition. I'm sure a trip to Kentucky will be on his bucket list. He is also saving up to buy a Paleopack! Thanks for introducing him to a fascinating hobby and possible vocation. Happy Grandma from Virginia!

I live in Camby and your grandson should go to Morgan Monroe there's creeks and around Martinsville and down at Monroe Reservoir it's very common and easy to find geodes close to home

Chris, you have amazing followers. I commented on one of your videos when you were in Michigan. I had mentioned for you to stop and visit us at Russo’s Pizza in Wyoming MI for some great handmade food. 😮😮A result of that comment being seen by one of your followers, a rock hound as well, he brought my 10 year old son and I a surprise package full of Michigan dirt and so so many beautiful fossils, rocks and more! Thank you Eric Hallman for your very special thoughtful package. We have yet to find everything in the box but have been so excited with what we have uncovered so far!!

Are you serious you left that big botryoidal geode ?! That was the best one ! 😱

[@DanielNollner]

We were in this same creek recently. I would love to meet up to rockhound next time you are in the area. My wife and I have been cutting the last 3 hours. Got some nice pieces. Also we could plug up your saw to my truck down in the creek and cut at location. Not having to walk back out with buckets of geodes is a game changer. Water levels are at lows right now since we have had no rain up here for weeks.

I live in TN. Bout 3 hours away from this creek.@@charleneinman3625

[@HollerHomestead]

You sir are a genius I have a generator and tile saw....I have ideas

[@DanielNollner]

Went back up there recently and didn't bring the saw but have buckets more of geodes. Met someone there that figured it out from this video. He said he heard a train horn and looked up active train lines and saw this was the only place it could be. Geoguessing at the highest level@@HollerHomestead

Whenever I would open a geode, I would have kind of a ritual where I would pause and think about how, I am about to be the first person to see the inside and that what is inside has been hidden from the world and daylight for over 300 million years. Puts it in perspective.

I just am compelled to say, with all due respect and love... Please be respectful to mother nature, she is giving you these beautiful gifts and I just cringe every time I see you just throw them away. If you don't want, put it back where you found it and appreciate the contrast that shows us what we do and don't choose... but always choose kindness... yes I believe these stones are alive and concious, and kindness and appreciation specially towards these stones would be lovely. Remember one persons trash is another persons treasure. Beauty resides within the eyes of the beholder. No disrespect to you personally, I absolutely enjoyed you sharing your experiences. Absolutely magickal. I'm sorry, please forgive me, I love you, thank you. 🙏💛

I have seen entire vertical banks made almost entirely of geodes of every size , whole , broken , etc .. I ended up with a lot of ballast in my kayak . Where I live we do not have good geodes ( usually ) , but instead , have paper shell geodes . Finding ones that rattle are common , and , occasionally , you find one that floats . These also have a sand of floater micro crystals in them and under a microscope , they are gorgeous .

That green thing you found with the brown nuts inside is a horse chestnut. They often have spiky skin and are highly poisonous if consumed.

The nut you cracked open was a buckeye. Legend has it they are good luck. Squirrels love them but they only eat two of the pod. The third is alleged to be poison. I have buckeye trees and collect them but definitely will not eat one. Love your videos.
