Here's the fossils we were given.

Here's the lawn ornaments. Made from plates, bowls, ash trays and anything else glass.

Day 4 Spent the whole day driving across Nebraska on I-80. We're in Chappell, NE about 85 miles from Wyoming and 16 miles north of Julesburg, Colorado. Walked around the small town tonight. Altitude is near 3,600. I have a rare headache and dizziness. Remembered that I got deathly ill from altitude in Colorado. I really am a flatlander. Why did I agree to this trip???..........Last night my cousin brought us over a box of fossils. They are soooooo good!! We can bring the rock club up to Omaha, NE area and she'll take us to the creek that she says is loaded with fossils...........Saw a Wal Mart in Lexington, NE that had a HUGE parking lot just for trucks and RVs. It was packed!

Rock trip to Idaho July 2009

Day 1 Made it all the way to Marshall, MO which is just north of Sedalia. we decided to take Hwy 65 north instead of going through Kansas City. Nothing eventful day.

Day 2 Arrived in Wepping Waters, NE. Visited with Jean's cousin, Art and his wife. had a tour of the area and saw some great lawn ornaments that the Mayor makes. Hope to post pictures tonight. Someone nearby has an unsecured wi-fi so we are running computer off it - yipee!! I'm getting some fossils from my cousin tonight.

Day 3 Drove over to Sidney, Iowa to visit Jean's cousin, Rod and his wife. Came back with 2 dozen ears of Iowa corn. YUMMY!!
