I received my Secret Santa package a couple of weeks ago and this morning I decided I'd waited long enough to open it. And wow, what a generous Santa I had! This package was sent anonymously, so TFF detectives, I need your help in figuring out whom I should thank. While the majority of these fossils are from the Ordovician of the Cincinnati, Ohio, area, the box wasn't sent from Ohio, which may be a clue--or a misdirection!

The package even thoughtfully included a floating frame to help me display one of my new acquisitions--but which one to select?!
