Recommended Posts

Me and a buddy who we`ll call Buttercup went down to one of the ditches in Summervillle and found these.

Now Buttercup aint ever been fossil hunting but Im thinking hes hooked lol..

This is just stuff tha screamed to be picked up, I still have a 100 quart cooler full of stuff to go thru so there aint no telling what else is in there, Buttercup found some nice teeth too but I dont have pictures of the things he carried home, Hope yall enjoy..

Oh the arrowheads werent found there but I had them on my little bench and have been typing and catologing them and took yesterday off to go find more stufff to figure out what it is..LOL

Also for most of the day I had something in my shoe that was pretty annoying and everytime I would think ok Imma gonna get this out I would find another treasure...

Finally last night after I got home and looked at the stuff I had found again I sat down took off my swamp sneakers and found this stuck in my foot.....

dang, son - gotta pace yourself! don't want that side of the continent getting too weight-shifted, cause it might cause discombobulation ripples westward...

thats really good, a good day for points on the bay would be like 1/2 of one a trip, a show on points said that delmarva is the best place to look for points but when you look at the stuff people like you find i dont know why they said that

All of that came from an area about the size of a living room,I dont know where Delmarva is and I generally use topo maps and a whole lotta luck... I walk creek banks and go where and when nobody else will get out looking, like when its cold out or raining or during holidays when most are home with family you can bet Im out in the woods somewhere..

...I dont know where Delmarva is...

"Delmarva" is the peninsula that bounds the Chesapeake Bay on the east, composed of parts of DELaware, MARyland, and VirginiA.
