Hello, So, I'm going to be going on a fossil hunting trip with my dad to Kemmerer Wyoming in August. It's basically a fossil Safari. We found it on the website fishdig.com. my dad has a co-worker who went, and he had a great time and found many fish fossils! So, me and my dad are going to be going in August! I will keep you all updated on what happens on the Safari when the time comes. I will post pictures when the time comes also. Jared

Where is this summer going? Some of us hearing the cicadas' shrill sounds in the tree, and even seeing some trees' leaves turn with autumn a'comin'. It's like we just got here! Time is just slippin' into the future, ins't it? By unanimous staff vote, we are happy to declare that August's Member of the Month is ... MONICA!!! Monica hails from Canada (as do I) and has delighted us with her adventures with her intrepid daughter Viola for our great admiration. Should only so many other moms be so dedicated! Monica is no stranger to the hunt and has actually spent time up in the frigid north. As a fellow educator, she spares no time in introducing our fossil passion to the next generation. I take it as a personal honour to welcome @Monica to the ranks of MotM! In our time with us, Monica has been a veritable sponge of information. She went from just "flipping rocks" to hammering them, and we all delight in Viola's love of brachiopods. As someone with a handle on biology, she is well disposed to paleontological inquiry. And, to see her transfer her passion to her daughter for us to see is just fantastic. Monica has been not only on her own quest, but has helped many others. Her kindness and knowledge contributes strongly to our community. Monica - Thanks for all you do and contribute, here on the Forum! Congratualtions Madam ! Wear this Crown with joy as you earned it! Care to tell us about your journey here to the Fossil Forum Monica ?? This is you opportunity to tell us about your journey. On behalf of the staff here on TFF, congratulations!
