Auspex Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Welcome to the Forum! I hope there's a space for you; the fact that Forum members have any slots at all is due entirely to the efforts of just a couple of benefactors. If it turns out that there are not enough to go around, at least you'vs "dug up" the Forum community, and we hope to see you regularly PS: Are you anywhere near McConnellsburg?

tuscarora-th Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Thanks, I really feel like I hit on the right place! Until a year ago I lived on top of the Tuscarora MT. 3 miles above McConnelsburg. Now I'm about 15 min. away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit235 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 april 18 There are some rough ole boys up here in the Mountains of East Tennessee. You have to be prepared. Haha!! The truth is, I was in Iraq last year and some buddies of mine gave me that rock I was holding as a joke/gift. It was just a rock but it couldn't have meant anymore if they had gave me a mountain.

bj aurora Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I for one would like to say I am really looking forward to meeting (maybe again) the members of the Forum. If I am invited (as a forum member, I would like to attend the dinner in Washington. I am also praying to the Fossil Gods that all members find at least one huge meg and anything else they desire! See you all in March! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest N.AL.hunter Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is no "fossil" god. but aside from that i hope all find a huge meg too!! I must inform you that you are wrong. There are several Fossil Gods. Anson is a Fossil God for starting this wonderful forum. Xaphactinus is a Fossil God for obvious reasons if you've seen his little fish. Every member that has invited me to collect with them are lesser fossil gods. Heck, Fossils Gods are all over (I can only imagine what Harry's whole collection must look like!). So I wonder if I turn my house into the Church of Fossils, will I have to pay property taxes?

If I am invited (as a forum member, I would like to attend the dinner in Washington. I am also praying to the Fossil Gods that all members find at least one huge meg and anything else they desire! See you all in March! Pray for me, too please! I need all the help I can get. I've been searching for just ONE complete meg. I always find pieces. I once found a piece that probably belonged to a 5" tooth, but it was just the root. I was soooo excited until I uncovered it. Then disappointment set in. I hope to find one this trip. ALL I WANT IS ONE!!!!!!!! Anyone out there willing to point me in the right direction or give me a few pointers?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members flatlander Posted February 25, 2009 New Members Share Posted February 25, 2009 It has already been stated that chances are slim for a newbie, but you never know unless you try. Please consider my name for a single slot. I will be posting a member introduction shortly followed by trip reports/exploits from an yet another Marylander at the cliffs. In the mean time greetings from the Eastern Shore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brsr0131 Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 This year I had alot more requests for a slot into Lee Creek. I wish I could give every single person one but in reality I cant. I am very sorry for those of you that will not be able to go in. But there is a good line up of people that I have from all over the country and if all things go well it will be a good representation of the fossil forum and what it stands for. And without further a due here are the lucky ones. Obsessed1 Haizahnjager toothpuller grandpa iamsharky Gymnura sp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
