Florissant Fossil Beds

We just got back from a nice trip to Colorado....this is not us, haha, just some people getting their picture taken as we drove by!

Sock Monkey was impressed with the fossil stuff

We watched the video that told all about how this happened..

We walked a short trail.....someone had tacked up some kind of skull on a tree..

not a good picture, but it's a black squirrel

this one is crumbling

impressed by the tree stumps

 I liked the display of the different fossils that had bee found there..fish, tiny bugs,  ferns, leaves...so pretty. The ranger was outside when we did this...he thought it was funny! Stay tuned for more updates from our trip to Southwest Colorado!
