RJB Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Today I went out to the shed and looked for whatever ammos I might have missed. I did find one rather large placenticeras that I still have to prep, but I ran into these very nice leaf fossils, and thought, "wouldnt it be nice to prep something else for a change". So I did, plus it didnt take long. I still have to trim then up with my tile saw, but they are close to done. The really neato one with the 5 different species of leafs also has an insect on the poplar leaf!! Just cooler than snarge man!!! Im going to keep that one! Enjoy RB Oh, these beauts come from the Parachute member of the green river formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJB Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Thanks guys,, I still have more to prep someday, but the sycamore leafs have problems that will take some time to prep, Once done, I will post some more photos. Also, my son and I litteraly moved about 7 tons of material in three days to get this good stuff!!! Very big pry bars and lots and lots of big chisles!!! Not counting lots of brute strength!!! Its deffinetly a young mans game!!! Im getting too old for this? But what fun it is. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
