Top Trilo Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 My secret Santa gift arrived today! Lots of really wonderful fossils in this lot, I understand why @Tidgy's Dad likes brachiopods so much, I got some really great ones. I really like looking at the bryozoans and amber through a microscope but all the fossils are amazing, thank you so so much! There is also a ziplock bag full of micro matrix from Lee Creek. Can anyone figure out who sent this amazing lot? 3 “If fossils are not "boggling" your mind then you are simply not doing it right” -Ken (digit) "No fossil is garbage, it´s just not completely preserved” -Franz (FranzBernhard) "With hammer in hand, the open horizon of time, and dear friends by my side, what can we not accomplish together?" -Kane (Kane) "We are in a way conquering time, reuniting members of a long lost family" -Quincy (Opabinia Blues) "I loved reading the trip reports, I loved the sharing, I loved the educational aspect, I loved the humor. It felt like home. It still does" -Mike (Pagurus) “The best deal I ever got was getting accepted as a member on The Fossil Forum. Not only got an invaluable pool of knowledge, but gained a loving family as well.” -Doren (caldigger) "it really is nice, to visit the oasis that is TFF" -Tim (fossildude19) "Life's Good! -Adam (Tidgy's Dad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 I will be travelling for the holiday season, so I decided to open my package early. Would you like to see what my Santa sent me?
