I think I would trade the bag in for a small wagon.

A handcar would better fit the setting!

Just make sure you have a hard hat and very good flashlight. The tunnel is a mile long and vibration from the highway above has caused multi ton pieces of rock to fall from the ceiling.

Yup I'm pretty shure if you get hit on the head with a mult ton piece of rock, a hard hat isn't going to do much for you.

That will do it.

Guess it isn't always the thought that counts

Would love to make off like a bandit and show off my nice rock pile finds.
I would wonder when the next meet up is in this area.

Should i be testing the cut patern of rocks with littery junk.
Like bear bottle caps that way they end up enriching the soil.

Trees really seem to do a good job pushing up rocks out of the ground.
I don't think rocks of the first one would be a good choice cause they be impossible to cut/ flatten.
But could they make a fine hone that be must likely slow to cut.
I kind of like having stones that just have one side flattened.

Florida is mostly karst (limerock) and about the only hard rock you will find is flint nodules.
