Pat B:
I never looked for rock when I was in Savannah but just don't remember much of any kind around. Not doubting it, just never saw it.
Vinson has lived in Savannah for quite a few years now. I haven't seen him in a long time.
mullet:
I just saw him at the Rendezvous. I joined the Florida Frontiersmen this year.
nclonghunter:
Lots of interesting info here...
Hey Mullet, is Vinson still portraying a native
american? I believe the rock Vinson found was found by scuba diving, so it isn't easy to get.
paulc:
)someone tell Vinson to hook me up! :-) Only thing I've ever found around here is mud an sand .

JEB:
paulc, cook it up. That will show the cracks and in some cases split the rock where it is cracked. Save you some of spalling time. I found a rock source in New Mexico a few years ago with rock that looked very similar. I boxed some up and mailed it back to Mike Cook. He made some beautiful points out of that stuff. Would love to stumble on to a spot like you did closed to home but Michigan has some pretty crappy rock.
