Florida Trip 18th-26th

[Tales From the Shale]

Hello all, my name is Jonah. For Spring break I am going to be near Venice, Florida for a little over a week. I'm posting this to see if anyone would like to hunt fossils in the Arcadia area, or Venice/Caspersan. I have experience in the Peace River and diving Venice. If anyone would like to perhaps join or trade information please pm me.

I may be stopping in the panhandle to visit an old friend and hunt there as well. So I'll be equipped with gear for both consolidated and non materials.

Perhaps meeting a stranger to share a mutual interest is strange, but heck the hard part was convincing my girlfriend, so here goes

Here is where my girlfriend and I will be staying, however we will be traveling over to the Peace River in multiple localities.

I also brought a two man dingy for some extra mileage in the river. I also have two shovels not pictured. 

Some small finds from both Arcadia and Sarasota.

In other places possibly, but certainly not here on the forum--that is a regular activity that I (and others) been able to partake of multiple times with wonderful and memorable results.

 

 

Cheers.

Good luck with your fossil hunting!

I am currently in Florida for a little bit and was around Venice today, I did collect some teeth but was mainly looking for shells and found some of those too.

Unfortunately I will be leaving back to CT on the 16th but I do hope you find some good stuff!

Hopefully the weather remains stable, was looking at the forecast and saw a little rain but not a problem for us!

Glad to hear that, it's really weird to think about just how many friends I've made through this hobby!
