Was getting ready to make a stab at 'er, then looked at the next pic.... then the next pic changed my mind............ then the next pic changed my mind again. Either way, those kind of finds are cool. Your trip reports and pics get better each hunt, you're gonna find something big soon!

I know right!!!!!!!!! I know my fossils but this is dumb this is from a few trips from the last few years of bits that I have no clue about but I don't wany to chuck some of them out!!!!! The bits of bone are either mosasaur or plesiosaur but I thought someone may be able to.
