Three round spiny things and a bunch of fossiles jammed together in a lump. A weird rock that i wish was a dino toe bone lol but it aint. Central alberta rock hunting trip

Recently it happened to me again : a fossil that for all purposes actively jumped into my bag . I'm not talking about stuff that is unexpectedly uncovered by careful preparation , but fossils that were lying under our noses and decided ,for once , to take the leap instead of remaining hidden in the trash pile on site . The kind of find that stops you and have you scratch your head , thinking ,"where is that fellow coming from ?". Last discovery happened in the ordovician of Quebec , packing the day's finding ; I came to that one and then stopped .Wait :I only found one complete Flexy on this trip , and it is already safely tucked in my bag .Where is this one coming from ?In fact it was hidden in the back of a plate with a promising hint of flexy on the other side . I never checked the under side until packing time ....You can see the underside poking out of the bottom right angle of the original plate ... The only other occurence goes back further in time and far away , in the cenomanian of South east of France , where I picked this nice bivalve stuff , only to discover at home the heteromorph hidden underneath! How many time did that happen to you ?

Hello, Im new to this forum, but im trying to find some petrified wood. Its going to be part of a pen I make for my dad, The main body of the pen will be petrified wood, the center band will be made out of meteorite, there will be a small moldavite tektite jewel on the clasp, and the metal will be plated with iridium. So as far as I know it will b the only one of its kind so im very excited to start but im wanting to practice using petrified wood before I actually start making the pen, I heard there is a place in or near Houston that you can find petrified wood, If it helps I live near Humble Thanks guys and happy hunting
