It looks very interesting.

Walk, Crawl, Walk, Walk, Walk, Sweat, Walk. All the while looking down.

It's great though. Instead of being stuck in Dallas, I am out in the middle of nowhere, screwing the the snakes, birds and other wildliife. I get to meet interesting country folk as well as see things I would have never seen otherwise.

You just haven't lived until you have stared down a 900 lb wolverine (Okay it was 90 lbs, but it was doing a good Grizzly impression :giggling: )

They may be too old (Cambrian) to be found in KS

There are some trilobites from the Witchita area. They are from the Pennsylvannian period (320 million years ago).

The stuff in W. KS is late creataceous around 70 MYA.

This is what we hope for. In 12 years I have found 2. They are currently being worked on. I hope to some day actually have the damn things done...

We also find the flying reptiles, though we have never gotten a skull or backbone, just the wings. I figure the body was the juicy part! This one is in the Sternberg museum.

I have one of these in my upstairs game room. It is only the Skull, but the whole fish would have been about 20 feet long. Imagine reeling something like that in.

You can take a look at www.oceansofkansas.com for more fossils from the State of Kansas.

We also do a lot of hunting in Texas as well as Oklahoma.

It's been fun sharing this all with you guys!!
