GetServed Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) A couple of years out with my dad at the beach (known as agate beach) We were just having a typical day at the beach Until! i found a big shiny rock it was the coolest rock i had ever seen! so we asked someone what they were and they said they are a common rock in the county of humboldt. So we started looking for them we found a lot of tiny ones which we were excited about! So we started packing up to go home and on the way home we googled Good agate hunting beaches we found a beach called big lagoon. So the next day we thought we'd go check out big lagoon. We arrived at big lagoone search the beach for around 15 minutes.. . Nothing.... DAD I FOUND AN AGATE THE SIZE OF A GOLFBALL! i was so happy to find an agate that big. Lol. So to this day we have been searching for agates and i hold the record for our hobby! have any interesting hobbies tell me about them! FOR MORE INFO AND PICTURES ON AGATES VISIT:http://rockhoundblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Patricks_Point_Beach_Agate.jpg or search Humboldt agate. Edited July 20, 2016 by GetServed 1 Quote

Raskin Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Lightning balls? Stick some lightning rods in the sand before a storm for some cool beach treasure. Quote
Haruhi Suzumiya Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Lightning balls? Maybe? Haha. Fulgurite is the scientific term. If you're talking about the sand being turned to glass, then yes! 2 Quote
Vanaraud Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Stick some lightning rods in the sand before a storm for some cool beach treasure. How large is the danger zone in that case? 10-30m? Quote
Haruhi Suzumiya Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 There's a lot of variables involved in the path and distance the ground currents might take but if you're 10 to 30 meters away from a potential strike on a beach I'd say, you just added one more variable to the equation Quote
