Been hot and rainy over on this coast as well. That's why I finished working outside by 11:00 am and I've been picking through micro-matrix finding lots of fossils since noon. :)

 

It pays to stock up to last through rainy season. ;)

 

 

Cheers.

P.S.: The photo above must have been of a Florida driver. Just sayin......

BAHAHA! I agree except for one thing....Rainy days are the best for making fossils pop out. Good rain gear makes rainy days a win-win.

Down here in Florida, the rain is accompanied by intense lightning. Being outdoors during a storm is almost suicidal. And it's been raining all day, every day, for over a month. It's nuts. It's the wettest summer I have seen in Florida since I moved here in 1976.

 

Today it's dry.....for now. This is the first break we have had. If I knew a good land site to hunt, I'd be out there. All I have personally is the rivers and they are all too high and too fast to hunt.

 

So we wait.......

 

(And yeah, that guy is definitely a Florida driver!)  LOL.

That's why I hunt with a long metal handled shovel.

It makes it more challanging! :P

I like to go out and collect on the warm sunny days and catalogue/ID (or try to...) on the cold wet days, but I’m pretty sure that even I wouldn’t have enough to keep me busy for a month straight. Hopefully it will dry out soon down your way! :fingerscrossed:

If you collect in the rain bring an umbrella: link

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
