For inquiries, email me at chrsbrwnmex@yahoo.com. Dismissing Christianity for its lack of information on the deep past is as dangerous as the believer's rejection of scientific facts for not appearing in the Bible. A 2.2-billion-year-old rock in my hand does not make me doubt: it makes me marvel all the more! I am of deep Evangelical Christian faith, believing the Bible to be God's complete Word to us for all matters pertaining to life and our relationship with Him through Christ, and I also thoroughly enjoy geology's delving into the deep past and trying to figure out our Little Blue Dot before we ourselves came to be here. God, being eternal, has ALWAYS BEEN and ALWAYS WILL BE creating and re-creating. King Solomon said, "...He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end." Geology is one of our ways of trying to "fathom" just a touch of that eternity! What is 4.5 billion years compared to eternity? A mere scratch!

Nice video Chris
Hi Chris! Great to talk a walk with you along the Yellowstone River! So many lovely rocks! I enjoyed hearing your discussion of the varieties you find. It’s great that this river is still free flowing, and has such a wide range of rock types- you can learn so much in just one area. The flat rocks are really interesting! Amazing how the river sorts the rocks! We see a wide variety of rocks on the beaches around the Puget Sound- I wish I knew the types better. Enjoyed the video, thanks! 👍👍😄 Jen from Washington
Jen, glad you enjoyed it, and followed along on the talk walk! I do a lot of "shorts" on different rock types from the rivers and beaches mostly, (My Daily Rock playlist) that you might enjoy. You mention the rocks over there - that is what caught my eye on your video about the bluffs. The amazing deep history contained in an ancient riverbed or beach gravel is always intriguing to me. And your style - very calm and relaxing. Keep up the good work! Talk a Walk... that sounds good.
@@chrissgraniteparadise2656 Thanks Chris! Great to meet you. I’ll check out your videos explaining the rock types- I’d love to finally know what I’m looking at along the beaches… I’m a bit busy at the moment, but look forward to watching once things settle down in a few weeks! 😄👌 Jen
It's nice that you tell people where you are at
Beautiful work)( do you have them just stocked together or do you use anything to holding them together?👍
It is all held just by gravity!
Beautiful nature of rocks.
Beautiful river. One rock and another of the ones I like 👌👌
I would imagine that in Costa Rica you find a lot of volcanic rocks, and especially porphyries. True?
Lindas piezas. Excelente explicación 👌👌
Love your videos! Always learn something interesting, then run and examine all my rocks for those characteristics!
That is awesome to know, and I hope you will let me know if a video of mine leads you to a great discovery in your collection!
Very well done Chris!
Thanks, and, coming from a fellow rock enthusiast, that carries some weight!
Wow!!! I love his videos!!!
Thank you! That is good to know!
Wow 👌 👏
Beautiful garden of rocks !!!
Beautiful!!!
I remember that YOU found a lot of these!
Wow, that's great 👍
I like the added music!
The rocks be getting a shower 😊😊😊
My grandparents lived across the highway from Rock Creek north of Red Lodge. I spent a lot of time fishing it as a kid.
Sounds like a nice place to have grown up. Thanks for checking out the video!
Early how I can get
I grew up on the East Boulder South of Big Timber. We would occasionally find “pudding stone” rocks that we were of various colors. The imbedded stone were much more separated/distinct than the rocks you found.
I have never found puddingstones (or leopard rocks, as I remember them being called) in Rock Creek, but I am assuming you watched my short on those - which are from the Yellowstone. As a kid, I remember visiting someone in the area you are mentioning, and their house was SURROUNDED with huge puddingstones they had collected in the river, which was on their property. I remember my mom's friend was so happy when I pulled another giant one out of the river for her. I am curious what you mean by "separated" - do you mean more space between the phenocrysts?
Holy shit man I love your voice, You could really be a voice actor, Loved this vid Haha
😂
would have found this much nicer without the stupid screams
It took me a minute to remember what screams - you mean the cheering for the stills? Can't please everyone, I guess.
Nice ... I love rocks in rivers n creeks.
Nice, river rocks have always been my favorite as well. I hope you enjoy the channel!
I dont think thats aventurine. Looks more like hydrogrossular garnet. Any known ophiolitic material in that area?
The reason I say aventurine is that it is full of that greenish mica. But I think I do have some pieces with the garnet you mentioned. A very bright green, correct?
@@chrissgraniteparadise2656 it varies from pine needle greed to electric bright green chromium. Its often mixed with a tea colored translucent idocrase and a white matrix. The serpentine, HGG, idocrase, nephrite, listwanite, diopside, and even jadeite are all subduction zone metamorphics. they are often mixed together in the same rock.
That’s nice
Thanks!
It's beautiful. Wow! interesting that the orange didn't do well on snow/cold weather.
Hello Veronica, I think it really depends on the porosity and mineral content of the stone. Travertine, for example, is porous, and yet endures the frost ok. And some of the darker canteras also survive. But the orange is really softer and is crumbling every winter into sand. Remember, we have 40 C above zero in summer and 30 C below zero in winter, and even in a single day the temperature swings wildly, especially in winter.
Hi. Can you share why the Lerma is extremely contaminated? Thank you. Great video and close up of the cantera tuff
The Lerma - mostly from untreated sewage and factory waste from Toluca, right?
I have cf I need buyer
cool video chris
I hope you guys keep enjoying my stuff. I will try to add more splashes and stuff for you.
Great brother!
They look like stone skyscrapers, it looks great.
Wow, it's super cool, I can imagine how long it took to do it, it's very beautiful as it looks.😯
Thanks, I am posting more of these as I process them - they are from last year. Eventually I will have a new playlist of the Shadows and Skies series.
Thank you for the descriptions. Augen Gneiss ❤
I try to be accurate and complete - in 59 seconds, LOL. Thanks!
Delicious eye candy! ❤ them all. Contrasting colors, shapes, and textures. Thank you for this video.
EYE CANDY - I have always enjoyed that term. Like a jawbreaker for the eyes: you can look at some rocks for HOURS and not get bored. That innate combination of deep past history, interesting structures, colors and textures. Thanks!
The stone sculpture is very beautiful and it's great how the color of the sky changes, and of the stone at the end.
Extremely good creation Chris's Granite Paradise. I hit your thumbs up symbol on your clip. Stick to up the brilliant work. Eager see more from you.
Oh wow, thank you for that thumbs up, and for the encouragement. I hope you will enjoy the channel then - a lot about the sculptures, rocks, shadow timelapses, and a few ecofriendly bug-smashes too! And of course, I have more to share yet. Lots of rocks to talk about!
I love banded iron, or genesis stone.
Truly a labor of love. ❤✝️❤
Excited to take Evie there with you!
Everything is very interesting and beautiful.
Hello Chris, greetings 😃✌🏻
