Finding Ordovician Fossils in Ohio!!

Hey guys!
My family and I visited my parents in Ohio over the 4th of July holiday week. In this video, we explore a little bit of their creek, and make a quick stop along the way to explore some of the abandoned cemetery from the 17-1800's that's hidden in their woods.
This is the first of a couple videos from this trip. Stay tuned for my follow-up creek video, as I'll have much bigger fossils to show off! Also, in another upcoming video, I explored a road cut just north of the Cincinnati area that I'll show in the near future as well.
Thanks so much for all of the support, and I hope that you have a blessed day today!!

I see you went with both for the thumbnail , Excellent choice . That is super cool Joe, if you guys ever decide to clean up the cemetery I will drive up and help, I love old cemetery's a friend of mine has an old one on his property , we cleaned it up and put a new fence around it to keep the cows out . Those are some amazing horn corals and they are in some AMAZING shape, and that last one looked like the sorting hat from Harry Potter .... Did Trilobites have a school of Wizardry !?!?🤣🤣
And yeah man I get what you mean about being out in the woods or rockhounding , its some of the times I feel closest to God , I have had people call me a Christian druid cause every time I go into the wild its like walking into church for me.

Awesome finds! I bet you have an epic collection of fossils.

@@Rockin_in_Kentucky thank you! Yes, we do have quite a few around here at my house.

I rarely see people finding them with such a perfect tip. Great finds❤ And I love the old cemetery. Part of me says check the coffins for treasures, while the other part of me says clean it up and make a nice little memorial garden. The tombstones alone would be worth preserving.

[@joedadbod8450]

@@soul_adventurist Oh, we would never dig up any of those graves…I wish I lived closer so I could help with upkeep. My parents can barely get around, and aren’t able to walk down to the cemetery area, so it just gets overgrown and forgotten. I do really like the memorial garden idea. I’m sure at one time that it was open with grass when it was originally there, and now it’s woods everywhere.

@@joedadbod8450 I’m sure I would not dig them up either 👍

Awesome horn coral on a matrix, I've got around 15 thousand perfect horn corals, that I found last year, and thousands of crinoids

[@joedadbod8450]

@@PeteRowe-ie2ez that’s awesome!! I have quite a few too, but not that many. I only get back to Ohio once a year. They are much more plenteous there than here in Arkansas.

[@heatherkelsey3341]

How fun and great finds! Is that by chance the Big Walnut Creek? I go down there and find some really cool fossils and rocks!

[@PeteRowe-ie2ez]

You found some super awesome fossils, I've found over 500 Blastoids, and all of them are perfect, and different shapes and colors, couple of whole entire Crinoid creatures , I've made a lot of money from them, and I have maybe over 15 thousand fossils
