Family Field trips: Go Fossil Hunting!

  I love to hunt for fossils—okay, mainly shark teeth.  It’s a bit nippy down by Calvert Cliffs (or neighboring beaches) to hunt for fossils.  However, this time of year you won’t fight crowds!  Rob and I stopped by Calvert Cliffs last Christmas.  We bundled up and headed for the beach!  Here are places to hunt for fossils.  I have found shark teeth on beaches in Florida, along the Gulf coast, too.  Here are parks or quarries where you can pay to dig for fossils.  Use your finds to make Fossil Casts.  (Good Will has fossil lots frequently, too.). Use online guides to identify common fossils.  Warning!  This is a very addictive hobby.
