JamieLynn Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Today is my 50th birthday so I wanted to select my fifty favorite fossil finds to present. But....because I am obsessive, I couldn't settle on just 50. So here's 150. My favorite 150 fossil finds. And there's still more - but then it would be 250 or 555...I don't know. Anyways, enjoy. Mostly Texas, some from Utah, Florida, North Carolina, New York and England (denoted by the state initials or UK). Almost all were found by me, except about 4 which were gifted to me. I did actually narrow it down to 50...initially. But then I had to do pages for the rest of them because I didn't want them to feel left out.... 3 8 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpc Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Happy big day. Are the pix all done on a scanner? They look good. I like this idea...I turn 60 this summer.... It could be a challenge to pick out the top 60... or 160. And then I would have to find them all.... Yikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilNerd Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Happy belated birthday Jamie! I see why you couldn’t narrow it down to just 50.

Mike Well, as a "working artist".....I have had a LOT of time on my hands lately! All my work has been shut down! So I am trying to use my time wisely.....by fossil hunting! 1 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
