When I was young, we had a shale outcropping near our house, and I spent many hours there splitting rocks to find fossils. It is what got me interested in rockhounding. Here is a small sampling of what I found.

If I would have had a place like that within walking distance when I was a kid, likely would have set up camp and lived there.
