Hang tight everyone! 🤣🤣🤣

I have a backlog of a half dozen events to post!

Many of you might know that I have started working for my county as an entomologist, which has been an exciting experience!!

Unfortunately, between the job AND events, it hasn’t left time to do social media posts!

But rest assured: Even with my new job, I have plenty of opportunities to continue offering classes and presentations!

Every year, we attend various rock/mineral/fossil shows, and sometimes we find very unique finds! This year was no different! We found a collector that have an impressive amount of petrified wood. We now have a large collection of petrified wood from six different western US states! We tossed in an agatized clam for for fun too!
