jax Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Had a bad day on friday, got a nail in my tire, and had to go wait an hour to get it fixed, after that it was off to find some teeth with my son. His finds of the day, 3 golfballs , Not a bad hunt. Found a couple nice teeth. Also found a cool double fish vert. I like to snap pics before I pic them up. That cracked ground is after 2-3 inches of rain this week if you can believe that. Its always great hunting with my son! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barefootgirl Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Love the finds. I agree, its always a good day when you can take the kids. 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 August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 What a great way to spend time with your son. Enjoy it while it lasts! -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave.

brachiomyback Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 That is another thing I hate about Texas, all those ptychodus just laying around like that. Hopefully my travels will take me back so I can acquire my first one. Those teeth are soooo unique. ....you didn't say what species of golf balls your son found. Wondering if it was one of those Gregarodon normanarius ones Heard those are pretty rare considering the formations down there nice finds (as usual) - Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
