Gastropods Galore at Rockport - Rock Collecting with a Geologist

My son in law David, who is a geologist, joins me for a fun kayak ride and some interesting rock collecting on the beach at Rockport State Park. We found a surprising number of gastropods (giant prehistoric snails) as well as some other interesting rocks.

Thanks to Christina Jelinek for editing the closed captions for this video.

Highland Park makes some high quality tools at reasonable prices. I have two of their tumblers. They're the most rugged tumblers I have seen. They also make a wide range of other lapidary tools, including saws, sphere machines, cabbers, etc. They also have the best price on grit that I have found.
I make a commission if you buy something through this link. I doesn't cost you extra.
