Nice!

I stayed in an apartment-style hotel (probably a failed apartment complex) in Tucumcari NM that had a bunch of petrified stumps in its courtyard. They didn’t bill it that way, I just noticed when I was wandering around early in the morning. They were too big to fit in my car...

I have a big chunk of Arizona petrified wood in my yard that someone gifted to me. It weighs about twice as much as you’d expect a rock of similar size to weigh. As such, I don’t move it around much.

And I always thought ‘Tucumcari’ was just a made up name by Lowell George:
