It was 40 F and breezy at home, but the wind was from the west, and the beach was protected, so it was pretty nice. I over dressed, and and had to shed layers and open my shirt to stay cool.
There was a very low tide this morning, and a lot of good fossil hunting areas exposed.
These guys were just coming back from a duck hunting trip. They had to get out and drag the boat over the sand bar to get it back to the boat ramp.
Way up the beach, we caught up to a class on a field trip from a
University of Maryland Paleobiology class, out on a fossil hunt. I talked to the instructor, who may have been
Bretton Kemp (the picture looks close; I forgot to ask his name), who had a very nice extinct Mako shark tooth. Skye was in hog heaven, going from person to person for a pet or a pat.
The class included this soulless one, seen combing though the cobbles looking for the "Big One."
Another soulless ginger, looking for fossils.
A friend looking for teeth found this among the beach trash. Probably washed down from Pennsylvania in the flood from TS Lee.
