Sorry for the delay in getting this post out!

Saturday, May 2nd, 2026 was a fairly nice day. It was partly cloudy with some wind. It was a little cooler than previous trips.

There were many familiar faces along with some new ones ready to join in on the fun! We did the usual show and tell with a selfie near the start. Andrew identified many fossils for everyone.

Andrew, are you going to eat that?

We found dinosaur eggs! Why was the nest on the ground?!?

And, we found many nice fossils on this trip. Here is a small selection.
