Each side in the back of our subdivision is being expanded with a culdesac.

These are photos of our side. Our new view.... I do not think I like the look without all the trees yet.!!

Do you?

After becoming soaking wet searching for fossils in the Peace River we drove by an orange orchard and took photos to show we were there. The new blossoms coming on smelled so Good!!!
We were seeing large loaded trucks full of oranges on our drives. In one location we saw a parking lot full of the same type of trucks with the oranges waiting for processing. If your orange juice says anything about Arcadia, Florida we saw Your orange juice!!!

By the way if you see my Teva water shoes(see my feet in this photo...) bring them to me! I left them in the park where we last searched for fossils after I changed my shoes....I miss them....

Shark teeth and Oranges




I am in the Peace River searching for fossils with the sifter Dennis and I built. Lucky Dennis is handy. It works just as it is supposed to. The noodle floats attached to the outside keep it above water after shoveling gravel onto the screen. We attach it to us with a rope or we also have a stake to place it into the riverbed so it does not float away.
Here I am sorting shark's teeth and identifying them. See the table with the lineup. We have several books to work with and now that we are home we are working with online sites. We have many other great fossils and are Identifying them also. ( ie horse teeth 3 millions years old etc. ) The University in Gainesville will help you id fossils if you send pictures to them. Such fun!!Come join us!!! I will add more great fossils photos.

I wanted to add this picture last night but I am still learning. I don't know who took the picture but it is from the trip to Florida October 2005. It was wonderful!
