Back in the 90's I rented an apartment off this old lady. It was a big house, she lived downstairs and there were three apartments upstairs. She used to like me and she invited me down for tea and pie now and again. She had a sunroom in the front with a greenhouse bench next to the window. I was walking through there one day and I noticed a rock sitting on the bench. It was a perfect specimen of petrified wood. It was about 3 inches thick, about 12 inches in diameter, and a perfect circle, with no chunks missing. She said she picked it up in the Petrified Forest National Park in the 1930's. Back when nobody really gave a shit. You'd probably do prison time for trying to take a piece out of there now. That thing was beautiful, and you'd never see one today outside of a natural history museum.
