Ludwigia Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Beginner's luck sure does produce some nice things! Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 That's pretty much the equivalent of going to Mazon Creek and finding a Tullymonster on your first visit. To give you an idea, I've been hunting Mazon Creek for 30 years and still don't have one. Not even a fragment of one. Beginner's luck just plain passed me by. What a way to start a collection! Congratulations. If you can still get to that site legally, try to find more. Usually if you find one there's more. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
