A Fossil Hunt 10 Years in the Making

The rainy onslaught against South Carolina has continued. Today, my hunt was to a spot I have been fantasizing about for at least 10 years, probably longer. I noticed these big piles next to a ditch years ago, and I often wished that I had been more into collecting fossils and less into chicks when I was younger so I could have collected the ditch when they dug it. Oh well. Those piles contained remnants of glories past, and I wanted a shot. Well, they finally dozed the piles, and I was on them like... like... me on freshly dozed dirt piles. I must say that my expectations were a bit high. Even though I did find a good number of teeth, I didn't find anything complete. Tomorrow is another day, and its supposed to keep on raining!
