Sorry guys, realized I never posted videos of this event.  Here are a few.

 

Day 1 dumping out material.  Quite a bit from Ralph @Nimravis

@stats I wish I could have stayed and been there when you dumped the buckets, looks like they members had fun. I am slowly filling more buckets for the September outing.

Thanks, we really appreciate your contributions!   Stay this fall!  It is fun to watch the happy smiles they discover fossils in the piles.  There are lots of questions during lunch about fossils and the history of the area.

 

The tentative dates for September are the 14th and 15th.  For everyone, come out and collect some concretions to freeze thaw this winter!

 

Cheers,

Rich
