Shamalama Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Woot! Great specimen, but now You'll have to set your security system to high in case Auspex decides to "visit". -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...
JohnJ Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 Woot! Great specimen, but now You'll have to set your security system to high in case Auspex decides to "visit". That's riiiiighht...he said he was going to PA, but......chances are if he showed up it would be to catch it with a camera. Great find, Dave.

Auspex Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Looks like all the time I spent voting paid off! (Did I just say that out loud?) Seriously, I was off the web for a week and had no opportunity to vote, but everyone knows where my interest lies...
