Red and Rover by Brian Basset for May 30, 2016

We had a rock that stuck up like that in our front yard – where we all played – we had to avoid stubbing our toes on it also. When some digging was done to see if the rock could be removed, it was found to be much bigger.

I don’t know if that rock was ever removed or measured – I haven’t thought about it in years. So no dinosaur bones.

That is some rock garden!

How cool is that!

LOVE & HUGS TO RED & ROVER

The idea does have some real parallels. A guy in Hyde Park, NY found a mastodon skeleton in a pond he was trying to drain in his back yard:http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2000-09-21/news/0009210064_1_mastodon-lozier-backyard-pond

Too bad we didn’t have color photography “back then”! Just think how much easier it would be to see what these creatures actually looked like…

Or dinosaur bones!

My #2 grandson would be trying to excavate it. He knows more about dinosaurs than most adults have forgotten.He wants to be a paleontologist when he grows up. I hope he makes it.

There was color film during the Jurassic Period? There was film?? There were cameras?

What we don’t know could be great if we did know.

I always loved digging in the dirt, but never found much. I still wonder if I had just dug a bit deeper….
