barefootgirl Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 :drool: Those are some really spectacular specimens! I'm speechless, they are just gorgeous. I bet you were stoked when you found them. Thank you so much for sharing those. In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat: but in the evolution of real knowledge, it marks the first step in progress toward victory.

Shamalama Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Real beauties. Found recently or older pieces? -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Menser Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Very nice. I can remember seeing Herkimers offered in the old Griegers catalouge I got when I was a kid. Never knew they got that big! Be true to the reality you create. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
