Suiseki wanderings

Post by fossil finder »

More shots from recent travels seeking suiseki. For me suiseki melds so well with bonsai and makes just another great excuse to explore the outdoors! Next week total knee replacement so good to have some quality time under my belt, but alas, no rocks for now..... FIrst shot is a sweet triangular pyramid of petrified wood from out Moree way that makes a nice addition to collection as a mountain stone.

Your photos make me impatient to get back out in the bush. I had an ACL reconstruction in October, I should be able to start jogging next week. Then indoor rock climbing a couple of weeks after that.

If I may give a little advice (I know I'm only young): smash your physio. No pain no gain. My dad had a full knee replacement a few years back and had some complications and didn't stick with the physio, now it's back to being his bad knee.

I don't trust Bonsai, they are a little shady.
