Hi, my name is Ron and I have returned to the San Antonio area and I am looking for fairly close areas to San Antonio for " good " fossil collecting. Looking for something other than the standard clams and oysters...I have good locations for items such as loads of shark teeth, croc teeth, Dino bones, ammonites, crinoides and corals. And 1 spot I have found good fossilized sand dollars for trade for info to this area. Thanks. I also found a fairly good spot in comal county that I collected from today.

Hello all, I am from the northern Houston tx area, and as someone who has just selected their major, in Geology, I am interested in expanding my rock collection, and having a great time as well. I AM looking for kool rocks that I can dig out myself that is also a place I can take my kids with me. I have been to Enchanted Rock, whiskey bridge, and a few places in the Austin area, but i am heading out this weekend (today is 4-9-2012) and would love a place where the kids could find some recognizable fossils, they think my crinoids look like round rocks...any help you can give me would be great! AMATEJ

Im sure most of you folks have a reference library or books on Paleontology and I was curious to see one of your favorite books and why. I just added some photos of my favorite book 'Naturgeschichte, Geologie, Mineralreich, Palaontologie' by Dr. Schubert 1888 to my gallery. Its a cool Victorian book printed in Bavaria that I cant read but I love the prints inside and some are hand painted. Its also a little humorous to see what the naturalist of the day thought a dinosaur looked like and the caveman was very brave.
