This past weekend I attended the Florida Paleontological Society's spring field trip to a shell pit in Charlotte County, Florida. These trips along with others I take, give me the opportunity to catch up with friends, many who are Fossil Forum members. This got me thinking about a topic for pictures of FF members in the field. From this past week @Shellseeker collecting 1.8 million year old fossil shells from the Caloosahatchee Formation in South Florida.

Tell me your craziest/most interesting fossil stories!
Pseudogygites posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hi! While I've also been fossil collecting, I am also volunteering for a local theatre company right now. This month, we will hopefully be leading a free acting program for youth in our community. Among my roles is writer/co-writer for the script that the youth will be performing. Ideas for what the script will be about have been scarce, but I do have one idea. I am thinking of making a vignette play (essentially an anthology of related scenes) about the lives of fossil hunters and palaeontologists. The scenes would be transcribed from various historical accounts and stories published in literature, but I would like to have some modern day scenes as well! If you are comfortable with it, I would really love to hear some of your craziest or most interesting stories from your lives of fossil hunting and collecting! Maybe it was a thrilling brush with danger while in the field, maybe it was an interaction between you and a cooky character, maybe it was a moment that cemented your love for fossils early in your life. I'll take anything! Regale me with your tales in the replies section or by sending them directly to me! Details, names, etc. may be changed or omitted, but I'd like to keep them as accurate as possible. Please also indicate if you would potentially be alright if your story made it into the production somehow. Thank you!- 16 replies

I’ve been busy with work the last few days and have been catching up on the news this morning. Just realized that California got hit with 2 big earthquakes in as many days, and it may not be over yet! I know we have some forum members that live out that way. Everyone ok?
