HIKING   - FOSSILS IN THE MIDST

A few years back, Tom and I went scavenger hunting  for fossils - one of our favorite pastimes. Lodged in the belly of a pitiful creek bed, we poked and peered, upstream and down.

Tom was a bit excited as he was locating several good specimens. Unlike him, I can't sputter off foot-long scientific names, so I felt as I were a bit out of my element, even though I was producing some pretty nice fossils myself.

  He kept spilling off long names that sounded more like dinosaurs than old rocks - which is what most fossils resemble, these impressions of things from an age gone by.

Directly after he had rattled off a rather long fossil name, I came across a perfect flint rock in the shape of a seven. Either that, or it was the letter 'L'. Nonetheless, I held it up and announced, " Look!   I found a lucky 7!" to which we both laughed.

My point is this... A hunter of fossils need not possess the silver-tongued lingo of a biologist, geologist or scientist. Fossil hunting is a fun activity that is heavily linked to the age of the earth and her impressive powers.   Though an identification book is helpful, taking along a friend to share the adventure is even funner!

Arizona Angels - (95 pages) Throwing the door open she encountered Bowie's towering form, his large arm extended, Lee dangling in mid air like a large spider. Lynx gasped, her hands going out to rescue the squawking child.

" This demonic little hooligan was window peeping into the honeymoon cottages! God only knows what she saw, but she seemed quite satisfied," he went on, his eyes scorching over Lynx's shocked face.   click to read
