Gift boxes from Mazon Creek and Florida


Tex

Recommended Posts

I received not 1, but 3 gift boxes from our very own Nimravis. I was in Kuwait when he sent them, so I had him ship them to my parents house for safe keeping until I got home. I was VERY excited. 2 of the boxes were from Mazon Creek. My favorite is the 2 jellyfish. they are to the far right. 1 above the other. To the left of the small jellyfish is a piece of coprolite. At the bottom are unopened concretions. I have them freezing at the moment to try the freeze/thaw method to see if anything is in them. There are also ferns, a clam, and bark.

The other bow was "about 22 Florida Pliocene shells from 16 different species"

Thank you, Nimravis, VERY much. My son and I really appreciate this very much.
