Here a cow, there a cow, everywhere a moo cow...

I hit calvert cliffs early sat morning, and first found 6 cars had beat me there. No worries though. We haven't had any new rain so I wasn't killing myself to get there early, instead got an extra hour sleep. Anyhow, my best finds came just minutes after starting my hunt. I found the two upper cowshark teeth within 10 feet of each other. Then I found the symphyseal looking carcharhinus or tiger shark teeth. ... |

I took a day off work yesterday with aspirations of hitting the Maryland Aquia Formation in hopes of finding some Otodus teeth, but something instead changed my plan in my feable brain to head for the Bay, so I did. I had the beach all to myself all day long until I passed someone on my way back and by that time I was done. I didn't find any megs, but I did find some pretty neat stuff for my collection, including a lower symphyseal cow shark tooth, a coupl... |

On the beach we had 3 lines of gravel, I took the high line because 5 feet from the boat i found a meg up there so i figured thats where all the good stuff would be, oh boy was i right. So i stayed with the high line all the way down the beach and ended up with well you see. Every 10 feet or so i would find something great, either a nice hemi, mako or meg! I cant even tell you which came first because by the time i reached the end of the beach i had 9 megs in the bag. Then i started to look ... |

Well on saturday the weather was really bad, 4-5 foot waves and with those waves a boat sank, one guy broke his arm. So we didnt go on saturday

We get to the beach and its a total sand box but the water was crystal clear you could walk out into 5 feet deep of water and see the bottom, as we started to look in the water in became obvious that this is where all the stuff woul... |

So would there be more than 30 people on the beach this weekend, no but there were still more than i usually see, as soon as we got to the beach we could tell it was gonna be good but at the same time could tell it was sandy, i guess all that sand from brownies came down. The water water up to about 3 feet deep was crystal clear, so we were on the look for big teeth. About 20 feet from the boat my dad finds a meg/chub. I stayed around where he found the meg and he kept walking down the beach, th... |

I headed to the Bay this morning (Sunday), hoping against reason for something good to turn up. I was primarily sifting gravel for a few hours, and was finding some nice small teeth, including a large cowshark upper parasymphyseal, a few small but sweet hemis, and a thresher tooth. I started to head back to my car, but I ran into Tony and Bob.
I had never done any digging in the fall piles befo... |

Hello everybody...I guess I have a little explaining to do. The camera thing, yes the cord is still MIA so I'm using the cell phone to send a pic to my email. Then download the picture and upload it onto black river. Log into Black river remember my password. And remember how to post. I'm telling you I broke a little sweat. Anyway-
This summer has been full of many wonderful things... such at bugs, sweat, sunburns, oppressive heat, "The Blues&... |

Hannah: Before and After at Calvert Cliffs
Calvert County, Maryland, USA |

The first few pics are of the beach area the morning of Hannah hitting Maryland and its early affects on the waves. I left early to avoid the major winds, rain, and potential storm surge. Take a look at the waves hitting the cliffs. That was early, so just imagine what it looked like a few hours later when the wind tripled in speed and the rain downpoured! Then compare that to the last few photo's the next morning...what a beautiful sun... |
