The Czickness LIII….CZing into the summer with friends near and far.

[DadSmith]

My LGS called let me know my Ruger American Rimfire Ranch rifle came in. Will pick it up Friday. My Arken scope is supposed to be delivered Thursday.

Life is good.

That's a good question. My gastrolith comes from a 'dig' of the Morrison Formation in upper Colorado.
Paleontologist have been finding small piles of these stones from the beginning of excavations (serious in the 1800's when big money was offered for just about everything).
Neat little piles in the middle of a plant -eating dinosaur skeleton, that rarely match any other geology in the immediate area. Sherlock Holmes !

Today, among living animals, stones/small pebbles like this are common among ground birds (chickens), and some species of crocs, lizards.

That’s a great, logical explanation!

P.S., DM. That's a big rock. Do you live at Stonehenge ?

Haha no, but I do have a funny story, being a ditch digger. One day I brought home another rock and my wife just gave me this look and said “stop bringing home rocks!”.
So I’ve throttled it back a bit.

Here’s a poor picture taken just now…
This gives some perspective of the size and a bit of the collection.

I have a couple that our 8000 lb capacity forklift didn’t want to move.
She knows better.

Tell the truth ...... at that point, you just picked them up with your bare hands !

Going be rocking and rolling in about a hour around here. I love a good thunder storm. The dog not so much.

 

[Born2vette]

I couldn’t ever match the great one on depth of reviews but I can try to match him in skinflintness. (Is that a word?)

 

[wtburnette]

Morning all...

Wow! We got it! Between an inch and two, generally.

Yes, skinflintness is a word.

 

[mcapo]

Wow! We got it! Between an inch and two, generally.

There was so much heat built up in the ground; most everything was dry here by 6:30 am.

 

[mcapo]

Yes, skinflintness is a word.

I accept!

The new mcapo. Spend not...

 

[ditcherman]

I accept!

The new mcapo. Spend not...

“Spend not, what is in your account, but ye shall spend what your fellow CZickos deem ye shall spend”.
I think that’s the whole quote.

Thanks for reminding us of it, I hadn’t thought of that in a long time.
