I am a new member in central Texas !

[ScottInTexas]

Just want to introduce myself as a new member. I have no education in paleontology and have stumbled on a fossil rich area while swimming and hiking at a lake close to my home. 

My intentions in joining besides enjoying the member's posts and learning more is to find out how to find the people I need to find to get the site I found evaluated.

 

I have found animal fossils and what I belive might be paleo Indian artifacts and environments in the same area while hiking.

Pictured are fossils I recently collected in an area of less than thirty yards taking less than half an hour to find them which exhibits just how rich the area is. The paleo Indian artifacts were collected on a trail that connects the lake to it's river inlet and probably less than ten miles from the area where I collected the fossils.

Welcome aboard. The Trininty River banks are covered in huge ammonites. I went gar fishing in Palestine and saw dozens and dozens...but catch and release live Gar, not fossils was the game that week.
