Having moved back to Missouri after many years in Texas, fossil hunting, and life in general, is an entirely new endeavor. It is good to have a friend and mentor to help me adjust to living in Missouri again. Our fellow TFF member Raistlin has taken me under his wing. Not only has he been helping me in the fossil hunting aspect, but he went as far as recommending me for a job at where he works. He even went so far as to make sure I was on the same team so we would be able to fossil hunt together. I couldn't ask for anything more. Raistlin and I were able to make our first trip together earlier this week. He took me to a Fern Glen outcrop that he had been to before. On our way back home, we made a few stops at some roadcuts to check them out. He was more than happy to point things out to me and help me identify some of my finds.

Thought this could be a clam, but not sure due to the extension of shell. Maybe a brachipod?© Tammie Harper
