I haven't been up in the mountains for a while, but in the meantime I continue beach combing. Today I found a great example of Carnelian.

Also many objects I'm interested in don't fluoresce, like petrified wood. Hunting specifically for fluorescence at night might be interesting, but I'm not sure if my rate of finding things that way would be any better than the rate which I find them already during the day and then testing them back at home. Maybe I'll try it anyway sometime just to see how it goes.
