Auspex Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 You are correct. I had hoped that they would mention the fossil display in my shop, but no such luck!

Petrified Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Seeing all these displays makes me wish I started collecting fossils sooner. I only started collecting fossils last year.

Auspex Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Seeing all these displays makes me wish I started collecting fossils sooner. I only started collecting fossils last year. Give yourself a break! There are folks on this board who have been collecting, continuously, for 40 years. Ask any of them what they had to show after their first year; you're doing great!

tracer Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 man, i just read the blurb from auspex above that there are people on the board who've been collecting continuously for forty years. that's darned scary. i'd end up forgettin' where all the mini-warehouses were that i had the stuff in. prolly have to buy about 87 of dave's cases. can't you just see ole dave pullin' up to route 3, box 4, liberty, texas and tryin' to avoid all them dogs that would pour out from under the porch on that back mobile home as he hollered out, "billy ray, you gonna have to tie up yore dang dogs ifn you want these here display cases set up in that pole barn over there!" then bout the time i got the dogs under control, he'd be meetin' mr. rooster, who thinks the san antonio spurs were named after him. lotta drama in life, and i try to create my share of it...
