  • The finds in this video had my friend Brian and I VERY excited! We first stopped at a roadcut to find some fossils, and then Brian took me to a creek that he wanted to explore. We found something very unexpected!

    Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Now!!! That's living large! That beetle was like icing on the rockhound cake!!! Oh! To be able to get out and hunt like that again! Thanks for taking this old fossil along. Brings back many good memories of rockhunts past!

    Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Wanted to share another thought. I always had zen like experiences at fossil beds. I love to sit and pay reverence to the fossilized creatures I'm sitting with and think about millions of years ago... the same sun that warms me... is the same sun that shown upon them...and someday another lifeform will sit here and warm in the sunlight. I find comfort in the continuum of life! Gosh...life is good!

    My favourite are coffeeopods, medium are the most common but it's not unheard of finding decaffeinatedopods.
    The beetle is from Alice, it's a drink me beetle and once you take it you will shrink because you doubled up in pain.
    The old blue slags are very common, especially in the winter months.

    Fayetteville TN just north of Huntsville AL. Is the Elk river, way back in the Mimosa Community it is just a creek when I was young I played in that creek and picked up all kinds of rock. There is a 2 lane hwy that has cutouts through rocks for the roads. Your video at the begining reminds me of summers at granny's.

    I once found a brachiopod that was in the center of a rock, and it still had its actual shell on it,(in a couple of spots) and was very light for how big it was and I was able to open it without damaging it, (I used the seam of the shell) and I found a smaller, case fossilized(shell was fossilized in a way that the brachiopod was not filled in with crystals) brachiopod inside. I sold the brachiopods to a local museum and they credited me on the display plaque for a few years and then they took the fossils off exhibit after someone attempted to steal them and they gave the smaller one back to me and kept the bigger one.

Those blue ones you found are awesome. I have been all around Tennessee but never stopped to look at the rocks unfortunately. You found a lot of great things. Loved hearing the moving water.
