Oregon Coast, Stones on the beach in Brookings Oregon
Along the Oregon Coast (this is at Brookings. Oregon) Beachcombing is a great activity, especially in winter when the waves mix up the rocks on the shore. Semiprecious stones called "agates" are a prize here even though they have very little actual money value. Agates are a form of chalcedony. The agates are polished by the waves and sand into a great collection piece. Unfortunately, they are VERY hard to find. www.OregonCoastTravel.net
