I'm not sure how long it's been but I've been gone awhile going through some life changes.  Now o have time to be active again on the forum.  I've missed my old friends here and am looking forward to making some new ones.  I'm no real expert in anything but I've collected a lot of places and look forward to discovering more.  Looking forward to catching up with you all.

If only my teeth are so prized a million years from now!

I was just looking at my 2010 cross country adventure and you always posted a response with each update

I remember that odyssey! A multi state bonanza of fossil hunting!

Glad to have you back here. 

Looking forward to more of your adventures. :D

Hi Chas!  Jacksonville is my home and my little slice of paradise but I'll be working in the Bay Area a few more years.  I go home often and my wife comes here to stay at times.  Looking forward to just being on our horse ranch and fossiling

I wish, St. Clair is closed. :(  Land owner passed away and the property went back to Reading Coal Company. It is patrolled regularly now and no collecting allowed.

Upps, I didn't know that. I hunted St Clair yesterday ( I am currently on a business trip in Allentown). Glad I got away and did not run into any problems.

And of course: Welcome back Fossilforkids!

A couple of nice slabs, but nothing special. My suitcase is already crammed full.
