FossilForKids Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Land owner passed away and the property went back to Reading Coal Company. It is patrolled regularly now and no collecting allowed. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers.
