Yesterday a lucky Springfield lady visiting the coast found a carnelian agate weighing possibly 9-11 pounds! One of our locals identified it for her and praised her on her beautiful find.
Guess that means beaches are beginning to show rock now, you will just have to look for yourself. But no the large gravel beds are not showing yet but yes there are treasures out there. Photos of more agates that have been found lately to follow soon. Happy hunting folks!
