    Default To find a Whetstone

    Taking advantage of the long Thanksgiving weekend, my wife and I set out to find a whetstone, a large Hindostan.

    We had seen photos of it and decided to make a trip, a 616 mile trip. If that sounds crazy, it is a very large Hindostan, at about 30 inches long by 18 inches wide and 2 5/8 thick.
    We made a few other stops along the way checking out other rocks, but this big guy was the one that brought us out. We had GPS coordinates for it and it was an easy find.
    It was impressive, although needing a good lapping since it had weathered some being left out in the open for a long time, since 1844 to be exact.
