Nice pretty rock you have in your area and even better when you find some worked.

Good finds unclemac! Can you imagine rockhounding thousands of years ago? !!!
 
imagine...Ellensburg blue cobbles just sitting on top the ground, red and orange carnelians, petrified wood, all colors of jasper...all easy to spot and use.
