Mud Dobbers- My Area Of Intrest!!!
Many people haven't the slightest idea what I'm talking about when I say Mud Dobbers. And I guess that's for a good reason, since they aren't found just anywhere. They are rocks. But not just any rocks, they are formed out of clay and can take some very odd shapes and sizes. And they take time to form, I mean a lot of time, like years. If I could show you i would, but my grandmother grew up calling them mud dobbers, the the official name, I have never found out. And so I cannot show you. But believe me when I say that each one is unique and fun. And are so much fun to find and try and figure out what they look like. Most of the time you got to dig for them. They usually sit right beneath the surface on banks and shores with clay close by. Some you can find a little further away from the banks, on dry land, but these are often molded into rings and small rippled ones that are clean and easier to get, but also harder to find since they blend. I have collected many with my Grandmother and is one of my quirky hobbies. and now that you know what a Mud Dobber is you can look high and low to try and find the most hidden rock that I know of. Good luck!
