Happy MemorialDay Weekend!  Hope you all are having a great weekend!  The weekend has been a bit weird weather wise here in the Sierra Nevada!  We had some snow (light) the past few days and today, beautiful skies with warm teperatures!  I suppose being in the mountains you should be prepared for all kinds of weather!  Anyway had a chance to do some rock hounding yesterday!

Im Curious: what kind of Rock is the picture above?

Wow check out some of the pictures of some rock minerals we found!  Now I am thinking this is called "wonder rock" or "wonder stone" - But what throws me off are the crystals found in some of these rocks!  Got some clear white crytal mineral deposits in a few while others had some ruby red cyrstals!

Im still curious :) Any of you out there know what kind of rock(s) are pictured below? Ones with the ruby red crystals in particular - Do ya know!  Please comment below!
