After less than 5 minutes with my 3 lb maul and big chisel I had it loaded in my jeep! :fistbump:

Another chunk of cretaceous wood -- the really cool thing is that it has borings across the top and the underside has oysters from the reef this log was deposited on, buried and ultimately fossilized. Local museum guys say the minerals used for replacement came from sea sponges!

The right tools go a long way!
